So it's safe to say that Crabtree is a top 10 WR...

Crabs is the 9ers only option. VD has not caught many balls this year. When you figure how many YAC he gets, 1st downs, etc....Crabs is deff slept on. Dude is a monster.

Crabs with Kaep for the whole year you project that into a 16 game season and he's at 1400+ yards and 14TD's :ohmy:

Brother, while he is very underrated.... he is in the class of stevie Johnson. The same hyping can be done about him if you put him with a great qb. The list is too deep currently to include him:manny:

:mindblown: Anquan is out there playing grown man football. Not afraid to make any catch and attacks the ball in the air. Did you see the last 2 games?

:comeon: Im a huge fan of his especially since he went to FSU. But Anquan aint been a top WR since his days in Arizona. He's not even the number 1 option on his team.

Im not denying he's a tough, professional, consistent receiver. But a top 10 WR? Nah he dont have the playmaking ability no more to be considered a top 10 guy

Who the #1 then? It ain't Torrey, he's really streaky.

Agree with you that he don't have the big playmaking ability like that. he's top 15

Nah. Why y'all throw these threads out there :"so and so had 1 good year he top ten in the L" consistency and longevity make you top 10 at your position. Even a bum finds a good chicken dinner in the garbage once in awhile.

The difference is that ALex Smith might be better, but the QB's that play with Fitz, LOOK FOR FITZ! They will force him the ball if need be. Alex Smith's favorite target was Vernon Davis. He didn't target Crabtree. We see what Crabtree can do with a QB that is willing to throw him the ball.

Kaep throws to Crabtree but don't throw to Vernon Davis
Smith threw to Davis but never to Crabtree :heh:

Crabs is the 9ers only option. VD has not caught many balls this year.
:mindblown: how can he be the only option when VD is still on the team ? you realize that VD drawing double teams means less attention to crabs ? and vice versa. you can just point out VDs low catch total and say hes not an option anymore

also crabs had ton of balls thrown to him by alex to start this year

gb game-8 targets
det game - 7 targets
minny game- 8 targets
jets game-6 targets
bills game- 7 targets
giants game- 5 targets
seattle game- 5 targets
cards game- 5 targets

while his targets rose a bit with kaep, thats because we pass more and kaep is actually capable of getting ball down the field.

its not like alex refused to throw the ball to crabs. crabs was our third down go to guy way before kaep started.

Only option was a bit much but what I mean is after Vernon there's nobody. It's not like Julio, Jennings, Dez where there are so many other weapons to cover on the field.

It's the quality of those targets and where the ball is placed. You think Krabs just decided to step his game up with Kaep? No. Kaep puts the ball where it needs to be which allows Crabs to get YAC. Kaep also undersands that Crabs is a gamebreaker and checks for him more. Alex's guy is VD. Colin's is Crabs.
