Michael Crabtree and the Future of Draftniks?

Here's something I've been thinking about since news broke at the scouting combine about how Michael Crabtree is the unluckiest man alive.

By all appearances it looks like Crabtree is going to end up going in the top 5-10, despite not participating in any of the traditional workouts. If this is the case and Crabtree ends up having any sort of success at the next level he could be responsible for bringing some common sense back to scouting- in terms of an increased focus on in game performance versus unrealistic measurables. Thoughts?
