It's really annoying the way they keep giving away the picks with the cameras on the guys

Karlifornia · 04-25-2009, 04:10 PM

lol@ the ginger kid at the Raji draft party

rjolley · 04-25-2009, 04:10 PM

Come on Singletary, do the Bears a solid and trade the pick for Urlacher.

I still think Eagles or Giants give up their first for Braylon Edwards.

Glad Jets fans think they got the good end of the trade, Browns fans think we did

Yeah, I'm not really a fan of that, either. It's like they think they're doing investigative journalism, but not realizing that nobody wants it.

Agreed.

Oh sweet, looks like the 49ers are going to get Crabtree!

I've watched the draft for as long as I can remember, but for some unknown reason I'm having a brainfart - Today's just the first 2 rounds, right?

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:13 PM

Aaron Rodgers, top 5 QB at the end of the year??? Not so fast my friend.

DaddyTorgo · 04-25-2009, 04:13 PM

they always do that though - IMO they ought to wait till AFTER the pick to do the "this is how the kid reacted" shots

mauchow · 04-25-2009, 04:13 PM

Yeah, two rounds.

Abe Sargent · 04-25-2009, 04:13 PM

From Jaguars.com, the lead guy who runs it had Monroe at #2 on his value board, and he talks to the scouts before building his board:

Yup!

Tigercat · 04-25-2009, 04:13 PM

Come on Green Bay. I hate it when teams waste all this time when they know who they were picking all along. Attention whores.

Solecismic · 04-25-2009, 04:14 PM

Crabtree's going to be on a mission in the Bey area.

Yeah, the producers must've taken direction from most reality games and the new game shows. Haven't they figured out that it's ok to go to commercial without giving us hints about what's going to happen?

DaddyTorgo · 04-25-2009, 04:14 PM

who's going to throw to Crabtree in SF anyways?

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:14 PM

You have to go Crabtree now unless you can trade the pick and still get a D guy that Singletary wants.

I think it's off-limits to international fans, but if you click the 'stop'' button quickly enough when you try to load the page, you might be able to get through. It worked for me. If not, go to the following site, go to the 'NFL TV Coverage' and you'll see a way around the problem:

I had problems initially, but now it's up and running.

DaddyTorgo · 04-25-2009, 04:15 PM

sausage + cheese for Beej!!!

and according to my brother although ESPN was saying that was in NJ it wasn't, because he saw basketball players there that he just saw at the Spring football game 2 hours ago

Doesn't matter, they should have 60 or 70 pass attempts a game since I'm not sure they'll be able to stop anybody this year. It'll be a one man show in Crabtree, unless Gore bounces completely back. But even if Gore has a better year, they'll still have to throw a crap load.

if thats the case then they should be happy. if you cant trust your scout then you should be playing FOF

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 04:16 PM

I will laugh so hard if the 49ers pass on Crabtree.

...And then hope the Dolphins move up to take him.

Karlifornia · 04-25-2009, 04:16 PM

I read this on the 49ers forum:

"we could be the first offense to have both VD and crabs"

Danny · 04-25-2009, 04:17 PM

At leas the Dolphins did something similar a couple years ago and still got turned around.

Jas_lov · 04-25-2009, 04:17 PM

The Pack is back! Raji will be perfect for their new 3-4 defense. With a decent defense and Aaron Rogers at the helm, I see a deep playoff run for the Packers.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:18 PM

A trade down would make a lot of sense as I assume there is a decent Crabtree market right now.

CRABTREE ON THE PHONE

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 04:19 PM

Looks like Crabtree. The spoiler stuff they're doing is really starting to piss me off now.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:20 PM

This is BRUTAL watching the phone conversations. Is NFL Network doing that too?

Karlifornia · 04-25-2009, 04:20 PM

THANK YOU AL DAVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Schmidty · 04-25-2009, 04:20 PM

I'm getting tired of the phone call crap. I wanna be surprised.

sabotai · 04-25-2009, 04:20 PM

One reason that ESPN is able to keep giving it away is because it's taking Goodell forever to get his ass on stage to announce the pick. The "Pick Is In" graphic comes up and it's still 3-4 minutes before it's announced by Goodell.

Danny · 04-25-2009, 04:21 PM

With the Raiders pick and their coverage, I think I'm just going to turn the draft off.

rjolley · 04-25-2009, 04:21 PM

PB: Yep. They think it's very kool, apparently.

I've noticed that as well. I was wondering if the network asked him to pause each time so they could cut away but maybe not, maybe they are filling.

Izulde · 04-25-2009, 04:21 PM

Crabtree = steal of draft.

lordscarlet · 04-25-2009, 04:22 PM

Try listenign on the radio -- it's the opposite. I have no idea what's going on. You guys are talking about a pick for 5 minutes before I have any idea what is going on.

PurdueBrad · 04-25-2009, 04:23 PM

What kind of numbers would you expect to see out of Crabtree year 1 in SF?

I'm thinking 50 catches, 650 yards, 5 tds? Nothing stellar given their offense but still productive.

RedKingGold · 04-25-2009, 04:23 PM

As a 49er fan, I'm very happy with the selection of Crabtree.

Hopefully. whoever is the quarterback can get the ball to him.
