I didn't say he was.

However, it isnt out of the realm of possibility that a team trades a 6th or 7th round pick if he were placed on the trade block.

And in my original post, I never suggested we trade him. He should be flat out released even if no trade partner can be found.
I would trade him for a king size bag of hot fries

Was never a Crawford fan. But last year he did do a lot of the dirty work for other players to make plays. He was never, nor will ever be a big stats guy. But does his part.
Not worth the big contract. But I don’t think a few late round draft picks are going to bump him off the roster.

I hope they do, that means we will have hit on a player for the future as well. But most likely he will be hear one more season. Then both he and Collins will be gone next year.
Maybe we can stash a few of these players on the PS. I won’t think they will replace him just because they were drafted.

With the additions of the new dline players through the draft and his recent off the field incident, this would be a good time of releasing him.

Releasing him as a post June 1st cut would create 7 million in cap savings and only account for 3 million in dead money.

It would also clear 10 million in cap space in 2020.

I'm all for releasing him as a post June 1st cut.

I think Crawford has been underrated around these parts, but I would definitely sign off on this move. He's a glue guy, and that new DT from UCF probably sniffs glue, so it's time to move on.

I keed, that's Dak money now. Not that I want to give Dak a lot of money, but they're going to, so this is the honey pot I'd like to withdraw from.

DLaw/Hill/Collins/Quinn are the starters not Crawford. Replacing mediocre vets with young cheaper talent when you have to pay several vets, in a league with a real salary cap is exactly how you should do business.

Nope. Not this year.

We may have added young talent, but as of now, he is our third best DL that can play three positions, and I don't think we will need the cap space for this year.

In 2020, good chance, if the young guys come through.

He's our best interior pass rusher right now. His cap hit is too much, but his salary is ok. I wouldn't be surprised if he finished his contract here and we get a little comp pick action out of the deal.

Collins will be gone next year, we're down an interior pass rusher.

I doubt Hill starts. Quinn too.

Quinn is probably the starting RDE on pass downs, but not base downs. Right now I'd guess Crawford.

Then Crawford is part of the rotation at DT on pass rush downs with Collins, Hill, maybe Taco.

Taco could have a problem making the field. That'll get a lot worse if Gregory comes back.

For all the hype/tripe we hear about marinelli's great coaching skills, only Lawrence has developed into a true star. Never crawford. I think the change needs to be made to our d-line coach. Until then, same old news, same old blues again.

We don't get better by cutting guys like TCrawford

We are in win now mode, not store up salary cap space( even though we have 80m+ next year)

Our actual cuts will make NFL rosters.... that wasn't true here for a long time

At least trade some guys before cutting quasi-starters

I think he gets just little more than half that. 2 year 12m at best
I think he's reached that year at a time level. Serviceable player, but not much more. If gregory or taco could have been counted on to perform, he'd be gone already. Irving, malick collins are 3 more reasons we've kept him around. He an insurance policy. Nothing more. Jmo

Omg Jerry has brainwashed you into believing Crawford doesn't suck. Guy is useless. Should have been cut last year
I don't recall JJones mentioning TCrawford once since he signed his extension

What TCrawford does is play every week at whatever position we need and gets the most consistent pressure of anyone on the DL..... he does the dirty work and gets paid a Blue Collar salary of 7m... the only people obsessed are the haters

You don't cut leaders

Now maybe asking for a revised contract ...
