Come on now Hazer.. 1 day after any draft the same could be said for pick.. and you know that to be true.

There are questions about Raji.. but there are questions about just about any pick in the draft.. including Crabtree.. and I like the kid a ton.

Oh haha! I just noticed that you are doing the Hate Aaron Rodgers because of Brett Favre thing on Raji now. It doesn't matter if he turns out to be a good player ever because he isn't Crabtree. Rofl, I guess history does repeat itself!

Orakpo and Jenkins? Those players are part of your Deion and Barry Sanders group?

They weren't even slated top 10.

I loved Crabtree, but he wasn't even close to a need for our team and I don't think we want that much money tied to our WRs.

DHazer is only going to support a GM that does what he wants him to.

I knew as soon as both those guys were sitting there at #9 this was going to come out of Dhazer.

The way I look at it and the way most fans look at is we were fortunate to be sitting there in a place where we could take either Raji or Crabtree. The difference between you and me, and others on this board, is while I preferred Raji I would have BEEN FINE WITH CRABTREE TOO. I would have gone with it even though it was not MY preference.

You need to worry about what you have control of and let go of the things you don't.

I mean after the draft when many of these draft guru's were talking about who had the best shot of Offensive Rookie of the Year and Defensive Rookie of the year many said Crabtree and Raji.

We had our pick of either one. I mean it can't get any better than that.

Deion & Sanders aren't a far comparison. Deion was perhaps the best coverage CB to EVER play the game. Barry is hands down the best runner since I've started following football in '76.

Crabtree even reaching TO's status may be a stretch.

Let's all be fair though, Crabtree was the best player on the board. He might have some injury concerns and it wasn't a need, but he was the best player available.

But still, will us not taking Crabtree mean that Raji will become a bust? And how does this look anything like Mandarich? Raji has been through tests at the combine, he didn't use illegal substances to artificially raise his strength. He'll be a solid player at worst. And without the injury problems like Crabtree has and which we all hate because of some DE.

I'd readily concede he's the best player on the board. He will make Niner fans happy.

What will make me happy is to see the Packers sweep da Bears, slaughter the Cows, and make a deep Playoff run. Best chance of that happening is to fix that gaping hole right in the middle of the field that opposing RBs run through all day long.

Crabtree is a slight upgrade to our WR core. Raji will more than likely be a good upgrade to our DL. DL is our most pressing problem we have. WR, not so much.

As for Raji and M**d**i**, I don't see the connection.
