With Griffin on board as a starter,,... why now would we keep a 9 million dollar backup in Crawford ?
Give that 9 million to add to Griffen's contract. ..
Unless they drastically reduce Crawford's salary to make him a cheap nickel DT (which we have Gallimore and Hill for that)
, .. i just don't see how it would make sense retaining him at that price now.

I don't see any reason to cut depth. Injuries happen every year.

Crawford, until it is otherwise proven, is the fourth-best DE on the team and third-best DT.

MIX IN THE YOUNG BUCKS and now we are ready for battle. Who will be that mudder at DT? Woods? Gallimore? someone else? For me, I wanna see that bruiser in the middle...that thug that just imposes his will and tackles. I cant wait to see who emerges.

This what I like, the young guns have a year or 2 to learn from some vets.

Because there’s something called Covid-19 . Depth will be huge this season. If Lawrence goes down Crawford is the starting LDE.

I think the message just became clearer to the players. If they EVER doubted Mike M's message about it being all about winning, he removed all doubt with the signing. You can bet he was pounding the table for Him all along.He knows him well. He had to coach against him at GB.He knows the player very well

Snacks would’ve been perfect. I just have this feeling Poe isn’t going to make it. He looks way out of shape and injured. We’ll see?

I wonder if Jerry was in Seattle last week because he was talking to Seattle for a player?..They wanted GRIFFEN and Clowney. Yet somehow we land the better of the 2. Hmm..
