If only they had as big an impact on the field

Sounds like he was a good teammate. Keep the hate to yourself.

Taking Draft advice from Crawford. No wonder we end up with guys like Taco and Hill.

actually you don't know what you're talking about, Crawford was the player that did a lot of the dirty work that allowed DLaw to be productive, that's been mentioned by folks around the organization.

He was a solid DT. Overpaid, upgradable? Yes, but solid.

+ the Cowboys did him no favors moving him from DT to DE a million times.

The draft starts one week from tonight. Hallelujah!

So when regular folks are asked to cover a position at work they should tell their boss your doing me no favor moving me to that position?!

Shouldn't this be in the Hallmark zone

NFL players are not regular folks.

To be the most successful at DE or DT you play at a certain weight. He would bulk up or slim down in the off-season just to be moved when the season started.

Screw that @Bowdown27 let it flow man


Crawford was an overpaid guy who barely produced relative to his pay and the fact that he was for some dumb reason, untouchable.

dude just collected a paycheck for nothing the last 2 years.


I’m glad he is gone.


That’s great that him and D law are friends. No worries there. But I couldn’t care less about their buddy story. These are the same dudes who call themselves the hot Boyz while accomplishing Jack squat in the league.

I completely agree. Crawford was mediocrity personified. Often injured. Had very little impact.

Every off season we had to see stories about how he was “playing hurt”. Who cares it’s the NFL. I don’t care if your shoulder hurts.

The team considered the 2/22 Minnesota gave Tomlinson something they wouldn't go near, yet paying Crawford 20 over the last 2 no problem at all.

Yep. All this hand wringing about “the pie” when they are flushing money down the toilet on under performers.

absolutely ....need to be direct about your transferable skill set and where you dont have the core competency to be successful (initially- not to say you cant build it over time). Example being, lets say you are a finance guy and they want to move you to marketing because they need the support...sure there is a lot there that overlaps in terms of managing growth metrics, budget, P&L, etc. but they are both different skill sets and you should be direct that you have concerns on the change....

direct conversations are important in talent management both in the NFL and in a professional environment.

All because he was never good enough to establish himself at one position. The retroactive sugar-coating is nauseating.
