Browns souring on Crabtree?

Tony Grossi, Browns beat writer for the Cleveland Plain Dealer has gotten some info from “a source” regarding Texas Tech wide receiver Michael Crabtree’s visit last week to Cleveland. If this is true, the Browns could again be looking at Brian Orakpo with the fifth pick.

The Texas Tech receiver brought a diva attitude on his visit to the club facility last week and did not impress coach Eric Mangini and others, the source said. In fact, Crabtree was described by some in the building as “not nice.” After Crabtree left, Mangini secured last-minute workouts with borderline first-round receivers Hakeem Nicks of North Carolina, Kenny Britt of Rutgers and Mohamed Massaquoi of Georgia.

In other beleaguered Browns news, Southern California quarterback says he’s had little contact with the Browns since the combine.
