ESPN.com reported here that Texas Tech coach Mike Leach was not too happy with the Cleveland Browns. Leach blames the Mangenius for WR Michael Crabtree falling to number 10 in the NFL Draft this past weekend. He claims that Mangini found flaws in Crabtree's character and that's why we didn't draft him with the 5th pick. Whatever man. We didn't make any promises about taking people. Why doesn't leach get angry at the Oakland Raiders? After all, they not only were looking for a wide out, they took one- Darrius Heyward-Bey...WHILE Percy Harvin, Jeremy Maclin, AND Michael Crabtree were still on the board. Do you have beef with THEM Mike Leach? Don't get me wrong: Crabtree is an excellent player, and he might just become the next Jerry Rice for the Niners, but the Mangini and Kokinis decided to not pick him. It's not like the picked a different player at the #5 spot-they traded it to the Jets. And then traded down again and again and again. So I'm sorry that Mangini called him a diva, maybe he overreacted. But he didn't blacklist Crabtree, he was still taken in the top 10. Don't you have better things to do with your time Mike Leach, like I don't know, maybe trying to get back to the number one spot in the Big 12 WITHOUT your stars (undrafted) Graham Harrell and (apparent diva) Michael Crabtree? I think so...
