I will always admit that I don't follow college football...I follow the mock draft sites and lurk draftplanet because the draft absolutely intrigues me and is my 3rd favorite football day of the year (opening week, super bowl)...
which is why I lurk draft planet and take what you, hamas, mecca, milkman, etc...say as very educated opinion (even though I think you all pretty much do what I do and then try to pawn it off like you actually watch all of these games and break down film etc. etc. etc. when in reality you probably just cherry pick it from your favorite sites and decide what you want to agree with and what you want to disagree with and so on)...
but after last year and then watching Crabtree play (who looks like a better version of Detriot Lions Roy Williams)...
I know longer respect your opinions on WR's and their route running abilities, or lack thereof.

First, not all spread WR's are bad route runners. I think Jordan Shipley is a damn solid route runner, for example.
Crabtree was a MUCH better route runner in college than Bryant, IMO.
And I'm not sure why you're pounding the Crabtree drum just yet. He's played what, 11 games, averaging 60 yards a game?
Dwayne Bowe had more production as a rookie, (similar yardage but much more scoring) and was picked 10+ slots later, yet people want to run him out of town.
