Although he missed all of training camp and the first four regular-season games in a contract impasse, Michael Crabtree walked into a locker room full of players who welcomed him to the team Wednesday.
hey, more than anyone, realize that though they play a game, it's nevertheless still a business.
"That's the business side of things," running back Michael Robinson said. "It's not like he didn't want to be here."
Said tight end Vernon Davis: "It would have been nice to have him here at the beginning so he can learn. The good thing is he's here now. I'm just happy to have him here, excited for him to get in."
Wide receiver Josh Morgan went through the rookie thing last year and said it took him until the seventh game of 2008 before he felt comfortable in the offense. A similar time frame would take Crabtree well into November.
"I'm happy he finally signed," Morgan said. "I'm happy for him so he can get his NFL career started. Hopefully, he picks up the offense and does the same thing he did in college. All I can do is give him my experience of last year, my rookie year. I know the playbook inside and out, every position. I can really help him in that area."
A couple stalls over, taciturn Isaac Bruce was asked his reaction of the Crabtree signing, which dominated the news on Wednesday.
"I don't know if I have one," Bruce said.
Gore on mend: Running back Frank Gore, who injured his right ankle and foot early in the Minnesota game Sept. 27, is on track to return at Houston on Oct. 25, following the 49ers' bye week.
"I won't know until I get out there. Right now, I feel all right," Gore said. He said he will begin running this week to test the ankle.

That seems to be a popular thought, but I think the tampering charges scared off any teams that might have been letting him think he would make more money elsewhere next year. We can all sit here and call him a bitch or whatever name we can think of, but most of us would hold out knowing another team is willing to pay TWICE as much as the current team is offering if we just wait one season. Holding out for more money does not mean he won't be a team player and it doesn't mean he'll be a distraction. It means he's not the brightest man in the world and he put too much confidence in his dipshit agent. Did anyone watch the press conference with Crabtree? Why wasn't Eugene Parker's punk ass there? He should have been there to answer some of the questions. He enabled this holdout, his faggot ass should take some of the heat. He was nowhere to be found.
Also, I do find it very suspicious that the Jets trade for a receiver when it became obvious Crabtree was going to sign with the Niners.

Shawn Hill has great awareness, i said this before the season started. Cant remember if i said it on here. The Raiders O-line is so weak Russell cant tell if a team is blitzing or not so it appears his awareness is terrible but i can see him performing well with a team that has a good offensive line.
