No one wants to touch this so I'll take a stab. I own Nicks so of course I lean Nicks. However, I am ALMOST ready to give Crabtree his due. Someone dug up an old post of mine saying how Crabs would never amount to anything. Boy what a difference a quarterback makes. Health is what keeps this close IMO. I think Kaeps and Crabs continue to be productive and as long as Nicks stays healthy he will produce as well. I would give the slight edge to Crabs but if Nicks stays healthy I would prefer him. That playoff run he had on the way to the Superbowl was AMAZING. He was the offense. I haven't seen Crabs take over a game quite the way Nicks did during their stretch run. His upside is tremendous. Just has to play 16 and this may not be a debate.

Doing a start up now where I have Crabtree but Nicks owner is 49ers fan and said he'd do a 1 for 1... start 3-6 WR I already have Megatron, Crabtree, Torrey Smith Antonio Brown, Kenny Britt.

Trying to decide if I wanna take this deal or not -- this WR corps has sick upside...

Since he is asking for the trade, might as well ask for something else

I am alot more risk adverse than some (I traded for Britt for the upside if that tells you anything) so I don't care that Nicks has had some problems staying on the field. Crabtree really showed me something last year but I would still rather have Nicks by quite a bit. But as some said, he asked for the trade so why not use the injury as leverage and try and squeeze a pick out of him.

I think it's a fair deal and I get the feeling if I push for more he might just change his mind. he actually prefers nicks by a slight margin as well but is willing based off being a homer. I also commish the league so while I want the best deal possible am also not looking to set the standard for fleecing someone either.

It was a solid trade, didn't mind grabbing my boy but you're right, I wouldn't have given any more just to have Crabtree. I love my Niners but I play fantasy to win haha

Nicks. I owed Crabtree for 2 years. He is solid, but a low WR2 at best. When Nicks is healthy, he is a low WR1 high WR2.
