he was the highest player on their board. I don't think you grade any other way.But the question is did the Packers staff grade Crabtree higher as a Packer player? See, there's the rub I think. We hear the announcers and commentators say who they think is higher on the board. But that person might not be considered Packer material by Thompson and company. One of the things they look for is someone with the same team philosophy as the Packers organization. There are a lot of other "qualifiers" they look for as well. So, Raji may have fit that bill better than Crabtree.
Bottom line is if you see someone you feel is a HOF level player, you grab them no matter what.
If I'm Ted and I see the next Jason Witten, I'm drafting him. Or the next jerry rice. Or the next forest Gregg. You guys get my point, while flush at some positions, you never pass up that great player. I feel later rounds you can somewhat draft in areas of need. No point in drafting 6 WRs if they are always on the top of your board.
