Michael Crabtree visiting

[Nublar7]

Stills, Landry, Crabtree, rookie and Matthews looks pretty good to me. Make it happen Miami.

I like this because it allows us to go after Waynes or Kendrick without worrying that we're neglecting the WR position.

A whole 251 yards of YAC last year, which was 73rd in the league.

More than Wallace and 10 less yards than Clay

Crabtree: 251 YAC
Hartline: 146 YAC

- Michael Crabtree replaces Brian Hartline

- Kenny Stills replaces Mike Wallace

- Jordan Cameron replaces Charles Clay

So did he visit today or is tomorrow? Ian Rappaport said Thursday.

@AbramsonPBP: Michael Crabtree arrives in Miami tonight but will not actually visit the Dolphins until tomorrow per @RapSheet

A little off topic, but I think yards after catch is an overrated stat. A guy who averages 14.8 yards per catch with 4.5 yards of YAC is exactly the same as a guy averaging 14.8 yards per catch with 2.1 yards of YAC.

 

[Carne Asada]

Yes, but when your game revolves around throws in the 5-15 yds, yac matters.

Not if the guy is getting 14.8 yards either way it doesn't.

Huh?

Crabtree looks super slow... i would pass on this guy. He looks like hes running in slow motion out there.

He still gets open from his route running.

 

[Aqua and Orange]

Would really like this signing. Man the Dolphins are doing everything smart for the first time I can remember.

Pay the performers, cast off the overpriced junk.

Stills, Landry, Crabtree, Parker.

Post-Achilles injury, Crabtree has lost a step, but he can still run, still get open, still play with more strength than post-injury Brian Hartline.

All the below Crabtree plays are post-achilles injury.

Nobody is saying that Crabtree is megatron. It's just that he's a good fit for Tannehill's skillset, he can still produce, he won't be expensive, he'll be a good bang-for-the-buck, and he's an upgrade over post-injury Brian Hartline.

Crabtree would be solid, great hands, good blocker, good routes, good size. That injury really F'ed him though so it would have to be a fair deal like 2yr 6 mil
