Michael Crabtree

Titans fans have been asking for a receiver in the first round for two years now. It ain’t happening and if it was, they wouldn’t trade up to do it.

And, I’m not convinced he’s worth trading up for. The only receiver I’ve seen with enough potential to warrant trading up…Calvin Johnson. Receivers are sooo hard to evaluate.

Here’s a draft trade chart.

I don’t know where our pick is this year. Let’s say it’s 28th (ie we’re the best of the defeateds.) Let’s also say we have to trade up to at least pick 5 to get Crabtree. We’d have to give up this years 1st rounder, 2nd rounder, 4th rounder, and 5th rounder as well as next years 1st rounder.

big 12 plays no defense.

I don’t think he’s worth the money he will end up getting.

I believe if the Titans are going to draft a wide receiver (which we wont) there will be some quality ones available when we pick. Or possibly even in the 2nd round.

I’m fairly certain that the guy will be pretty damned good. He’s good or even great in size, speed, and hands, and, lest we forget, he’s been voted the most valuable college receiver two years running (that’s the Biletnikoff Award). I think he’s going to end up being a fantastic pro. However, I also think that Seattle, picking at number 5, desperately wants a stud receiver. There’s no way he falls past them, and there’s no way the Titans give up what they’d need to give up to move above them. I would rather see them concentrate on maybe getting Crabtree’s Big 12 compatriot Juaquin Iglesias in the 2nd Round and addressing CB in the first.
