He's screwing up everything for a lot of teams because of how they slot draft picks. The NBA really has the best model now of draft contracts and if it takes a strike to get the NFL Unions in line, then so be it. This is ridiculous

The funny part of this is the reason he dropped on draft day was because he was a prima dona. Particularly he acted like such a diva in Cleveland that they took him off their draft board completely. I don't have a link but basically they said he was out right rude to everyone he came in contact with. Its nice to see one of these ego-maniacal athlete's actions finally come back to hurt them in the wallet.

I hate **** like this, but I agree with him. Its not his fault the Raiders are the worst run organization in the history of sports. He is tons better then DHB, I think he should get paid like him. Don't blame him, blame the Raiders... In 3 years Crabtree is a all pro player and DHB is looking for a team.

that remains to be seen, doesn't it? many players don't make the transition to pros-if he thinks he's so good, go out there and show it instead of trying to base your salary on where espn projected you'd get drafted.
