The Jokeman Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I didn't see this posted anywhere but it was published an hour ago: The Bills also acquired quarterback Matt Cassel in a trade and have promised more moves are coming, with wide receiver Michael Crabtree among their reported targets. http://espn.go.com/blog/buffalo-bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 First round talent that never really got it going in SF. He started getting in a groove with Kap before the wheels fell off. If he is cheap, I'd sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pafan Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Earlier today, around 1-2PM EST, the Sacramento Bee published a story saying Iupati agreed to terms with ARI and Crabtree agreed to terms here. It was quickly pulled but the title, links & meta data were still floating around Google last time I checked. Nevermind, just saw the post above!

It was quickly pulled but the title, links & meta data were still floating around Google laat time I checked. I guess but ESPN just posted that article an hour ago so I wonder if there's more to this but maybe the writer didn't follow through on checking his sources *shrugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeyBomb Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 NO NO NO NO NO, STOP! These Crabtree rumors sprung about rapidly from a fake Pro Football Talk account that a lot of people got duped on. There are so many fake accounts going around that one of the prominent twitter guys I followed joked something along the lines of, "Full sports column articles are being made based on these fake account rumors." DO NOT BELIEVE THIS ONE. Even though you can barely believe half of them as it is. This one seems to be substantiated from a false rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what am hearing the other part of the rumor was Iupati to Arizona and that came true or am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeyBomb Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 From what am hearing the other part of the rumor was Iupati to Arizona and that came true or am I wrong? Iupati is being reported to Zona by reputable people like Schefter, who broke it first. Iupati is being reported to Zona by reputable people like Schefter, who broke it first. Iupati is being reported to Zona by reputable people like Schefter, who broke it first. But it isn't uncommon for some run of the mill source, to report a fake rumor AND a legit one at the same time when they themselves do not do their research.

I just posted a link from an ESPN article again it was posted at 6:31 so I'd think he would have checked his sources before posting it *shrugs*. Again I agree that it could be fake and that's why questioned it in the thread title but it may not be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJDK Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I live in 49er country and heck NO people! talk about an overrated garbage player. I have seen way to many games where he just dogs it on big third downs and goal line situations. He has no fight in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again I agree that it could be fake and that's why questioned it in the thread title but it may not be. I'm not saying I know for sure either, but I think I would have heard something from a more reputable source. Someone like Vic Carucci or Tim Graham or Schefter or Ian Rap... This looks like he is hearing it 2nd hand anyway, so he isn't reporting anything. If he was reporting it, then I would believe this rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Crabtree is so overrated, it's not even funny. He reminds of Braylon Edwards. A lot more hype than substance. I'd rather have Hogan than pay him a lot of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I expect him and think he would do very well in New Jersey as a jet. The guy would be great inside with Marshall and Edwards outside. Matching a big physical WR against nickel and dime DBs in Chan's wide open offense- an offense that doesn't need a TE- letting there be a monster Redzome target. Ifmi am NJ I am signing this dude so whoever is playing QB can just throw the ball up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
