Sure, but since there isn’t a uniform system, those arguments can be entertained. The other 31 GMs would probably have taken him ahead of Bey.
I just think the Niners should consider that they were fortunate to get a Top 5 talent at #10 because of Al Davis senility.
That said...Crabtree is making a huge mistake, and will never see this much money again. This is a Juan Gonzalez with the tigers, or Juliana Margolis with ER miscalculation.

True, but as the Niners have said, if they entertain this type of crap this year than every future draft pick will pretend they are worth more than some guy 10 picks up.

They have which is why they offered one dollar less than the number 9 guy. They should, however, be (and are) mindful of the fact that they may have a bust. They paid Alex Smith a fortune a few years back. . .

Exactly although he's probably sitting on an offer or two from teams like the Jets for next year's draft day. "Just sit and we'll pay you what the number 4 guy in 2010 gets.

Every minute Crabtree holds out proves Davis was right to skip him. Crabtree should get paid for what ACTUALLY happened, not for what Mel Kiper said was going to happen. The whole “well I shoulda been drafted earlier” argument is just proving that he’s a complete idiot, and complete tend to be failures in the NFL. This whole incident is proving the critics half right, this level of intellect shouldn’t have been picked 10th, this level of intellect shouldn’t have been picked until the second day, maybe even the supplemental draft.
