Note to Michael Crabtree: The 49ers aren’t missing you

Five years, $20 million base salary with $16 million guaranteed upon signing.

And somehow, that’s not enough money for a player that hasn’t done anything in the NFL to deserve such a paycheck.

And
whatever paycheck Michael Crabtree wants for this year, it’s not going
to happen in Week 1. If Crabtree does not sign by the 49ers’ first game
of the season, that’s a paycheck he will miss out on if he does
eventually sign after that first game.

Each contract is paid in
weekly increments. Crabtree’s absence from the first week means that’s
one paycheck he will not get. The more weeks he misses, the more money
he will not see.

Obviously, the holdout from Crabtree stems from
his belief (along with agent Eugene Parker) that he deserves a lot more
money than the initial offer by the 49ers. But the 49ers aren’t willing
to pay the rookie something he doesn’t deserve.
