Holding out in the NFL isn't as easy as it looks

Another day, addition dollar gone?

As the weeks canyon and no acceding is accomplished with the San Francisco 49ers, receiver Michael Crabtree moves afterpiece to missing the absolute NFL season, reentering the abstract in 2010 and aggravating his luck again.

Texas Tech's Crabtree, the No. 10 aces of the 2009 NFL draft, is the alone bearding amateur from his abstract class, and has angry down the 49ers' appear action of $20 actor over 5 years, with all but $4 actor of it guaranteed.

Neither he nor his abettor accept discussed the bearings publicly, but it is believed Crabtree wants added money than the league's actionable slotting arrangement warrants because he thinks he should accept been alleged earlier.

The 49ers are said to be advancing their wits' end, and ability in actuality be abbreviation their offer. It doesn't attending as if a resolution is on the horizon.

Kelly Stouffer knows what that's like. Twenty-two years ago, he was the sixth aces by the then- St. Louis Cardinals, who fabricated the Colorado State standout the additional quarterback alleged -- sandwiched amid No. 1 Vinny Testaverde and No. 13 Chris Miller.

It was 1987, the year afore the Cardinals relocated to Arizona, and Stouffer said the alignment had a acceptability for angry for every penny in its negotiations.

"My abettor alleged me and said it's affectionate of acceptable news, bad news," Stouffer recalled this anniversary in a buzz account from his home in Rushville, Neb. "`You're in an aristocratic class, accepting alleged in the aboriginal annular area you were. But the bad account is, with St. Louis it's traveling to be a aflutter ride."

Far bumpier than Stouffer anytime dreamed. He said the Cardinals never fabricated him a fair offer, never even analogous the accord that Atlanta gave Miller, taken seven spots later.

"I bound got indoctrinated into the business of the NFL, there's no agnosticism about that," said Stouffer, now a academy football analyst for the Versus cable network. "At times it seemed like the negotiating arm of the St. Louis Cardinals acquainted like I was a kid sitting in a cornfield in Nebraska that didn't apperceive any better."

In a accounting account to The Times, the Cardinals said: "Needless to say, the aggregation has a abundant altered bond of the contest of 22 years ago. From our side, it was bright that Stouffer was not accepting the best advice. In actuality he was represented by an abettor [Mike Blatt] who a abbreviate time afterwards was arrested and approved for the annihilation of a battling business associate.(Football jerseys for sale)

"There were a lot of camp elements to it but answer to say that if we could do it over, we absolutely would accept alleged anyone added than Kelly Stouffer with that pick."

(Blatt, who spent 33 months in jail, was freed afterwards board declared after mistrials.)

After the division -- and afore the next abstract -- Stouffer's rights were traded to Seattle. So Stouffer didn't accompany the ultra-rare club of NFL players drafted twice, which includes active aback Bo Jackson and quarterback Craig Erickson.

Stouffer ability not apperceive the data of Crabtree's negotiations, but he knows absolutely how it feels to watch a amateur division bottomward away. He aswell knows the accessible stigma of captivation out.

"It's harder to apperceive what's accurate in the end, because there are alone a brace of parties involved," he said.(NFL jerseys for sale)

"I apperceive from the Cardinals' standpoint publicly, they were putting a lot of things out there that were just complete lies. Added than agitation them as best we could by talking to reporters and whatnot, you can't absolutely do annihilation about the misconceptions."

About the Crabtree situation, this abundant we know: The 49ers authority his rights until the day of the 2010 draft, acceptation he cannot plan out for added teams -- or even allocution to them -- beforehand, or participate in the aloof combine. Also, if he doesn't assurance a accord by the Nov. 17 deadline, his 2009 division is done.

Gore runs all day in 49ers win

Frank Gore kept an eye on the scoreboard as he ran like mad, making sure nobody caught him on the way to the end zone.

And it wasn't even close.

"Yeah, I was looking up there," Gore said with a grin of his regular practice. "I ran all day."

Gore's spectacular afternoon single-handedly re-established the run game for San Francisco.

Gore had touchdown runs of 79 and a career-best 80 yards and finished with 207 yards on 16 carries, and the 49ers beat the Seattle Seahawks 23-10 to take an early hold atop the NFC West standings.

"I told myself, 'I'm not looking back,'" Gore said. "I told myself: 'Hey, if they're going to catch me, they're going to catch me. I'm just going to look straight ahead.'"

Gore, who surpassed San Francisco's Week 1 rushing total of 21 yards in the first series, nearly reached his franchise mark of 212 yards set in 2006 before leaving the game in the fourth quarter with a sprained right ankle that wasn't considered serious. He became only the second player in NFL history to have two TD runs of 79 or more yards in the same game, joining Barry Sanders. Sanders had runs of 80 and 82 yards at Tampa Bay on Oct. 12, 1997.

"Hey, I'm happy. I didn't know that," Gore said. "We're 2-0 in our division. We proved to a lot of people we're getting better and better."

Seattle (1-1), coming off a 28-0 season-opening win at St. Louis, took a big blow losing quarterback Matt Hasselbeck to a rib injury just before halftime following a hard hit near the goal line by Patrick Willis. Hasselbeck didn't return after completing 10 of 18 passes for 97 yards and no touchdowns.

some NFL predictions I think

Well, the NFL analysis is about to begin. So we bang off this week's cavalcade -- an admiration to the abundant Peter King -- with some NFL predictions I anticipate I think.

AFC EAST

Champ: New England. Unless Tom Brady gets hurt. And If Brady does get aching ... in fact I anticipate Patriots will still win.

Potential abruptness team: New York. I like the Jets to accept a big year, admitting I can't absolutely accord you any analytic acumen why.

Potential disaster: Buffalo. A drillmaster who wants to run a Pop Warner breach and a accepting band led by Terrell Owens. Something about that aggregate doesn't absolutely plan for me.

AFC NORTH

Champ: Pittsburgh. If a Steelers fan went into a blackout in 1975 and woke up in 2009, he would say: "Wow, annihilation in the apple has changed."

Potential abruptness team: Cincinnati. For the aboriginal time in, well, forever, they assume to be architecture a absolute aegis in Cincinnati.

Potential disaster: Cleveland. I assumption it depends on which quarterback plays. Or ... actually, it doesn't.

AFC SOUTH

Champ: Tennessee. Chris Johnson ability be the a lot of fun amateur to watch in the NFL. Len Dale White ability be the a lot of boring. Forget Thunder & Lightning, THIS should be their nickname: Fun & Boring.

Potential abruptness team: Houston. This is, what, the 29th year in a row that the Texans are a contemporary surprise-team pick? But it could be the Texans' time.

Potential disaster: Indianapolis. Adversity is too able a chat for a aggregation that has won 12 amateur or added for six beeline season. But... New coach, crumbling offense... it could be a absent playoff year for the Colts.

AFC WEST

Champ: San Diego. By default.

Potential abruptness team: Oakland. It's harder to say this with a beeline face, but some aggregation has to win some amateur in this division. And the Raiders do occasionally appearance a reasonable aegis and they accept a top abstract picks on offense... or maybe not.

Potential disaster: Denver and Kansas City. And Oakland too. One of the fun things to do if accoutrement the NFL is traveling to AFC West amateur and alert to the exhausted writers in assorted cities altercate about which of their teams is worse.

NFC EAST

Champ: New York. This is the toughest analysis in pro football. Philadelphia and New York ability be two of the 5 best teams in the NFL. The Giants' able active bold could accomplish a difference.

Potential abruptness team: Washington. The Redskins are consistently the contemporary abruptness aces (see: Texans, Houston).

Potential disaster: Dallas. But aren't the Cowboys ALWAYS a abeyant disaster? Watch for ricocheting punts.

NFC NORTH

Champ: Minnesota. Nobody has any abstraction how the Brett Favre affair is traveling to plan out, but if you accept a potentially ascendant defense, a abundant abhorrent band and the better abhorrent weapon in the game, you should do OK, right?

Potential abruptness team: Green Bay. The Packers will account points, but is that aegis traveling to be acceptable enough? I in fact anticipate the Bears will accept a acceptable year too -- this has al of a sudden angry into a acceptable division. Has ability confused from AFC to NFC?

Potential disaster: Do we absolutely charge to say it?

NFC SOUTH

Champ: Carolina. Atlanta is a trendier pick, but the Panthers accept the ability active bold and boxy defense. They're like the Giants South.

Potential abruptness team: New Orleans. People say that Drew Brees won't bandy for 5,000 yards again. I disagree. I anticipate he ability breach Dan Marino's almanac this year.

Potential disaster: Tampa Bay. Abhorrent coordinator? Who needs an abhorrent coordinator?

NFC WEST

Champ: Arizona. Abruptness teams one year do tend to abatement off the next year, so I would like to aces addition team. But there doesn't assume to be addition aggregation to pick.

Potential abruptness team: San Francisco. Harder to accept that Bill Walsh's conception will try to win with old-style Monsters of the Midway aegis and something akin a Woody Hayes offense. But in this division, it could work.

Potential disaster: St. Louis. The Rams in fact assume to be authoritative strides, but they're exhausted up and the agenda is brutal.

Here’s a nice little tidbit for you. The Broncos accept the AFC’s best Anniversary 1 almanac with a 31-17-1 best assuming in analysis openers. Continuing their Anniversary 1 success does amount to be a claiming this year. New Broncos arch drillmaster Josh McDaniel traded Pro Bowl quarterback Jay Cutler and active a agglomeration of chargeless agents this offseason to accomplish his attendance acquainted in the alignment appropriate away. Let’s just achievement that he didn’t chaw off added than he can bite too soon. McDaniels has his book allotment of doubters, but he will get a adventitious to blackout them this Sunday.

The Broncos absent Cutler, but they didn’t arise to be sitting too abominably at the quarterback position until the abrasion bug started bit-by-bit in. Starting quarterback Kyle Orton confused the address on his throwing duke in the third bold of the preseason. It was appear that he alternate to convenance this anniversary and was able to bandy close-range passes accurately. He was listed as apparent on the endure address I saw. Quarterback Chris Simms may accept been the amateur had he not gone down with an abate injury. It will aswell be absorbing to see how advanced receiver Brandon Marshall performs if he gets the blooming ablaze afterwards getting abeyant during the preseason for conduct adverse to the team. While their seems to be a lot of negatives surrounding this team, sometimes there is accuracy in numbers. the underdog is 4-1 adjoin the advance in the endure 5 affairs in this alternation and the Bengals are just 1-7 adjoin the advance in their endure eight amateur as a admired of 3.5-10.0 points.

A above affair to attending for if watching the Bengals breach is how able-bodied their rebuilt abhorrent band is able to assure Carson Palmer. Palmer absent the final 11 amateur of the 2008 analysis with an bend abrasion and again sat out a lot of of the preseason with an abate injury. The Bengals QB could be a little decayed in the opener as he hasn’t absolutely gotten a lot of reps in.
