Crumpler no longer safe pick

Alge Crumpler is usually one of those fantasy players who is overlooked because of his consistency. How many other guys have improved their fantasy points four straight years?
2007, however, is shaping up to be the year Crumpler's streak ends. Michael Vick is gone, and with him the guarantee that Crumpler will be the top option in the passing game. More importantly, years of playing through injuries is catching up to Crumpler.
Crumpler underwent two surgeries after 2005, and another knee surgery after the 2006 season. Now he's receiving outside opinions about why his knee is still acting up.
Crumpler's conditioning has been called in to question before, and he basically hasn't practiced all offseason. All this time off means he'll have to play his way into shape (again), this time while learning a new offense. This is the first season where Crumpler's risk in fantasy leagues will outweigh his possible reward.

The Crumpler downgrade is expected.
Does anyone have high hopes on Randy Micmichael going to STL?
