The 49ers are expected to approach Michael Crabtree about a contract extension this offseason. Crabtree is owed $3.5 million entering the final year of his rookie contract. The 49ers had to be pleased with his 2013 recovery from Achilles' surgery, as Crabtree returned late in the season and made an impact. He's 26 years old. Re-signing Crabtree could be much cheaper now as opposed to next winter.

Any opinions on where Crabtree stands among the game's best at the position? He's obviously no Megatron or Josh Gordon, but there's a little bit of a poor man's Dez Bryant to his game. I think he could put together a 1200/10 kind of season given 16 healthy starts.

He will do better than that with a full 16!
