Michael Crabtree stress fracture - out 10 weeks!!

[patsox23]

Stress fracture in his foot, out 10 weeks. That means no Combine (obviously), no Pro Day, MAYBE a personal workout, but not much before Draft Day. YIKES.

wonder that that does to his top 5 stock. itd be interesting to see if it hurts him at all in the draft

Sweet, let's take him in the 7th! hehe

If i'm the seahawks I either trade down or take a OT worthy at that spot. Of course I say this 2 months before the draft.

 

[Kontradiction]

He wasn't going to run the 40 anyway. Most NFL scouts know what Crabtree is made of so I don't think it's going to hurt his stock TOO much. Most likely, his stock went from top 10 to top 20.

 

[jsull87]

i know but with all the over analysis that goes on he may get the "injury prone" tag... i don't think he is but i also have heard in another post that brady is injury prone... except for all those starts in a row. some people just jump on an opinion

Just heard on NFLN that his height is actually a little over 6'1 and not 6'3.

eek, not helping himself that's for sure. I don't get why these players lie about their heights. I remember Darrell Hackney, a QB from USF, a few years back was listed as 6'4" on the team's website, and measured in at 5'11". Like it's just ridiculous.

Crabtree posted his height on the TT roster? Or can we say his team's media assistant was given the roster and told to post it? I don't see how Crabtree hurt "himself."

The fact he hurt his foot is the big negative in this for me, it's my impression that foot injuries linger your entire life.

They can if you don't let them heal completely, and take every precaution not to further stress the foot.

Michael Crabtree, the top-rated receiver in the NFL draft, has a slight stress fracture in his left foot and will require surgery, Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports.

Key word here surgery

Yea, They probably have some tape on him that they can watch.

 

[PatsChamp88]

NFL.com's Adam Schefter reports that Michael Crabtree has decided to postpone his foot surgery until after Texas Tech's March 26 Pro Day.

Crabtree's stress fracture isn't painful at this time, but this pushes back his rehab period. He also risks aggravating the injury while training for the forty-yard dash. Assuming the surgery is still needed after March 26, Crabtree will miss his first rookie minicamp and not be cleared until mid-June.

Well that makes this situation more interesting

Isnt this the same thing that basically happened to Jonathan Stewart last year?

Well its something to keep an eye on. If I was not already clueless already about the first round I am even more clueless now. If the Seahawks dont choose him I can see the Raiders doing so.
