Upper Deck Interviews Michael Crabtree, NFL No. 10 Draft Pick

[labrae]

that,s wired las name

[rolivo78]

It was the gold rush of 1849 not 1949 and that's why they are called the 49'ers.

[TheReject1228]

Haha only played a couple games of the season and got 700 fuckin' yards!!!!!

[thatDCboy2]

im not a niners fan but this guy is hella good, and when a guy isnt cocky thats a good thing.. and its usually the non-cocky guys that are really good!!

[MobHeataEnt]

@thatDCboy2 like Jerry Rice, nowadays you got people like Randy Moss "I play when I want to play"

[BasharCali49]

How sick did Crabtree look in his first game? He is the real deal. Go Niners!

[CAVALIERSx49ERS]

@BasharCali49

I know, and i can't wait for this year. we did a great job with draft this year.

[sirprimetime95]

i have always wondered why they are called the 49ers.

[arnoldrjr]

it has something to with the california gold rush! GO NINERS

[theguy434]

san francisco was part of the Gold Rush when people when out and searched for gold to make themselves rich.

They use to have mines to dig for the gold so thats why they call them 49ers. Im not sure where the #49 comes from tho

[sirprimetime95]

they should have been the 69ers

[LawrenceRooney]

1849 was the year the gold rush started.

[MobHeataEnt]

@theguy434, actually they were named after the flud of good seekers during the gold rush when thousands of people came to northern california 1949 in search of gold.

[stockjonebills]

Let Nate Clements teach you some NFL lessons padawan. Your in the NFL now.

[Ninjaboy890]

...in other news(@hate comments) Michael crabtree signs with the niners...

[Clemensisguilty]

What a load of BS. This guy doesn't sign any autographs like he's Jerry Rice or something. He's like the only Niner I didn't get at all. Nothing but a TO wannabe.

[amazingman40]

0:40 i'll do everything for the fans hahahaha exept play football in the nfl

[JDNfilms]

ha yea, i think he just signed a few days ago not sure tho.

[amazingman40]

yea he did espn was talking about it

[falcosfan25]

rofl!!!

[nyhc43]

Michael Crabtree IS RETARDED!!!!!!

GO BACK INTO THE DRAFT AND SEE HOW MANY TEAMS ARE WILLING TO GIVE YOU TOP TEN MONEY

[OmarQB3]

Yeah I agree, Who wouldn't play for the 49ers?, Nice city, Great Fans, The team has great History, the only this team needs to success is a Quarterback. He said I do it for the fans, Really Michael?, Well I don't think 49ers Fans wanted you to act as you were superior

[flankspeed]

It's a harsh game, and I understand first-drafts wanna command big bucks in case of injuries and all, but he was holding out for millions on top of millions; money most people will never see over their whole lives.

Somebody needs to tell him that it's a team game. Singletary's building a unit, and he'll have no time for asshole mercenaries. And I say that's a good thing. Peace.

[raydawggg75]

he will give the fans what they want, yea right....as long as he gets PAID. his mentor is mr prime time and deion seems to agree with his hold out and then said crabs is not hurting for the money so a year of lost $ is no big deal.

[dared818]

I dont think this guy actually realizes he's guna get paid in the millions.....$15g's to be exact ! Go ahead, don't sign, re-enter the 2010 draft and punch yourself in the face when you're not selected in the 1st round !

[raidernation099]

craptree is damn winer i mean he has anit sign wit da damn winers yet since 5 monthes

[wtfskilz]

realy i think percy should get paid more then crab tree hes faster more dynamic more talent better hands and if you watch the pre season videos you can watch some amazing clips of what he can do and all the broken tackles he enforces

[wtfskilz]

well crabtree is a little bitch hes gona cry and say hes not getting payed enough and sit out the whole season . crab tree has a lot of strenght which makes him valuable

[stockjonebills]

Jerry Rice said that because he's the real deal. Talent, super star, class, professional....

Crabtree still has yet to prove himself in the NFL. EVerything he did in college is null.

[ChefBigDawg33]

Jerry Rice Said: "it," he means the state of wide receiver-dom, something he takes very seriously. "I don't think the love of the game is there anymore. It's all about me, me, me and getting that big payday ... Things have gotten out of hand with the wide receivers." On Brandon Marshall but Crabtree needs to sit down and talk to a legend. The Niner grass is still and will always be covered by Jerry Rice. Crabtree shut your mind off and do it for the love of the game...

[stockjonebills]

Unfortunately its not Jerry he's buddies with, its Deion Sanders.

[Otissor]

crabtree will be a cowboy in his future i bet.

[SchaumburgQB31]

crabtree is a terrel owens waiting to happen .i dont want crabtree to end up like T.O but he really needs to sign that contract and get on the field he will be a huge asset to the 49ers offense

[jesterjmac]

Harvin> Craptree

[Agobe001]

Amen lol

[dared818]

Crabtree just needs to sign tha damn deal ! Since when does a rookie dictate how much he should get paid...HE'S A ROOK ! I wouldn't be surprised if the 9ers get so fed of this situation and quit the negotiating !

[stylez2132]

better then othe wides in the drafts!

[raydawggg75]

his last answer shows how FAKE this guy is. sit out the season, or play ball. your offered millons and holding out for more with no pro experience. 9ers are going to be better without a Craby-headache!!!!

[YBRR88]

Yeah, this guy Crabtree must really think he is the shit. To hold out in your rookie season, spend a year away from football and re-enter the draft thinking you'll get paid even more.

Even if he does sign the 49ers offer, would we even want this guy on our team with his kind of thinking and logic?

[bcrock10]

and if he does re-enter the draft he wont even be close to a top 10 pick with all the talent coming out next year such as...colt mccoy, tim tebow, taylor mays, jevan snead, Sergio Kindle, brandon spikes, and maybe even sam bradford. and i didnt list all the other talent coming out

[aropsu4]

michael crabtrees awwsum better then percy harvin

[BloodySilence19]

this guy to me either needs to sign the damn deal or singletary needs to say get the hell of my team you big ass baby and go play in cfl.he thinks his the best talks shit saying im that damn good i better than anyone.well sorry how can u say your good when you wont even play in single practice showing off your so called talent.the only person who said off the bat i am that damn good is Deion Sanders he was that damn good no joke about that.overall sign or get the hell off the team

[ShockNAweMack]

And no team will take him seriously or even pay him seriously. He holds out, he will significantly decrease his "Value". Then again, he is a rookie ...which SHOULD translate to little or no value.

[ShockNAweMack]

This is EXACTLY the reason First year players should be paid the laegue minimum. This Jerk hasn't played a single down wearing an NFL Jersey and he's acting like a petulent child. But...The NFL Enables this behavior by paying the huge salaries. At this point I hope Crabtree doesn't play for my Niners...But it's ok you know why?Because if he holds out and waits to enter next years draft then he definately won't get "fair market value". He will be looked at as the spoiled laughing stock of the NFL

[DDavis29]

He needs to get his ass in training camp and actually play in a nfl season before asking for more money.

[Cflow27]

Let me say right now im a texas tech fan and a michael crabtree fan. but this guy is just being stupid from what i hear dude all about the $ huh? play a season in the nfl first and then if u do real good then talk about getting a raise u just need to do ur job right now man i can believe ur all about the cash to not for the love of the game. next year teams may realise they dont have enough money to satisfy u so they know u would complain then and just not draft u ur hurting urself man come on!!

[stsaints8]

Where do you guys think Michael Crabtree will be drafted next year?

[bighoe49us]

Crabtree and his agent, need to do what us fans whant and just sign the damn contract the niners are giving him and quit crying about how much he is givin! "Your a rookie dude" College is gone. Show what you can do in the NFL before talkin Money. And Yes I'am a NINER Fan GO NINERS #1

[laledo650]

niners will win the west

[lambskilla]

ur funny... or ur on crack

[laledo650]

both

[griptapedogg]

@laledo650 no doubt but they need a DB for 13th pick

[Choppaaah]

@laledo650 done and done =)

[laledo650]

@Choppaaah haha yeah 2 years later! thank god we finally won

[ahsanabbaszaidi]

Ice ice baby in the Background lol

[blackeo81]

micheal crabtree is great

[dawgs0525]

Dhb baby

[Choppaaah]

he looks great in RED and GOLD!

[pr1978]

Yes he does!!! Return of the glory days of the red and gold, coming soon.

[qbanner23]

raiders are stupid for not pickin him

[ITiZthiZZ]

it doesnt matter whos qb there..

Crabtree iZ going to be legit..

and there getting to the playoffs...

their going to have a great 2 back attack and a top defense...

[pr1978]

I agree. Assuming the niners remain free from injuries, I expect San Fran to surpass what they accomplished last year. The upcoming NFL season is unlike any of the past several years. I anticipate something special this year from the red and gold. GO 49ERS!!!

[Cflow27]

im gonna miss this guy at tech!!! but he was ready and i understand good luck in the nfl michael!!

[fame415face]

im goin to love seeing him in that red and gold

[pr1978]

Me too.

[JAYHUNTER22]

u know 49ers all the way homie

[Lionkrew12]

49ers got so lucky that they got him in the draft

[YBRR88]

Every team has their moments where they get a draft selection, Trade, FA pickup which can change the dynamics of their team.

[bigf530]

@Lionkrew12 more like the 49ers got lucky that the raiders messed up the draft!! hahaha

[griptapedogg]

@Lionkrew12 now with harbaugh as the coach this guys TDs are gonna shoot up

[hyperthao]

damm, i want to get his card badly..i hope i can get it..wooooooooooooo..49ers is gonna win the division this year!woot!

[chopper4567]

rookie of the year!!!!!!!!!

[YBRR88]

That would be nice but 49ers doesnt need him to make a huge impact. Thats how talented the roster is.

[LDD86]

well, their receiving corps is pretty stacked-- not sure about the whole roster

[jesterjmac]

lol you might want to take those words back

[bcrock10]

cool
