Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas TechMeasurables:
Combine height: 6-1
Combine weight: 215 pounds
Combine 40 time: Did not run at Combine

Stats:
Crabtree’s numbers actually fell off from his freshman to sophomore season, but he still caught 97 balls for 1,165 yards and 19 touchdowns. For his two-year Texas Tech career, Crabtree posted 231 receptions for 3,127 yards and 41 touchdowns.

Skill Set:
Despite just a two-year career, Crabtree’s productivity is undeniable; his gaudy stats and back-to-back Biletnikoff Awards are testament to that. He has good size, though he measured a little shorter than expected at the Combine, and he’s strong and physical much like Anquan Boldin. Crabtree’s ball skills are legendary, as he consistently battled double coverage and came away with the football. His hands are excellent—Crabtree caught 94 percent of passes thrown to him, according to The Sporting News—and he has both the strength to break tackles and the elusiveness to avoid them once he makes the grab.
