Austin Pettis and Greg Salas better than Crabtree?

[RebelYell]

Crabtree is a bust and JMO but Dez Bryant will follow the same path. Neither one has IMO the desire, maturity and work ethic to be great. They each have the physical tools but it's the rare bird that can overcome all the rest just with the physical tools.

I would take Crabtree off their hands, but they have to throw in Vernon Davis to make it fair.

Then cut Crabtree! No need for a me first type player. I like team first type players . I would stick with the 4 pillars that Spags wants than taking a cancer on this young team. The spags way is working pretty good so far.

Think he said that as a joke meaning Crabtree sucks so much they'd have to give us VD to make it a offer

I don't see it as him talking highly of Salas and pettis. I see it as him saying that Crabtree sucks.

I would agree, I think he's saying more about Crabtree being overhyped than Pettis/Salas being superstars in the making. Plus, Razzano spent a number of years as a scout for NFC West teams, including the Rams, so those are probably picks he was familiar with and ready to pull out in a comparison situation. The overall point, I think, is that talent alone doesn't necessarily get you much if you don't pair it with a work ethic that's strong enough to maximize said talent.
