Can We Finally Move Tyrone Crawford?

He has no business being a RDE on any four man line.

Since we drafted Armstrong, I think it is high time we move him inside.

Let his "non-stop" motor and "leadership" work from there.

couldnt agree more, or just cut him and sign hankins. goodness our run defense would see so much improvement.

I assume they are expecting Taco to earn the starting RDE spot this year, and we added Ealy, so I suspect Crawford will be depth all across th DLine. I don’t think Armstrong is anything more than a situational pass rusher, if even that.

Hankins is only 26...any reason he isn't signed yet? I mean he was great in a 4-3 and struggled as a NT in Indy....so why is he still unsigned? Injury issues or asking too much?

Looking for a multiyear deal at $8 million per, while simultaneously eating his way out of the NFL.

Ideally the guy drafted in the 1st round last year earns the starting job at LDE. Armstrong assumes the role previously held by Mayowa/Taco. Crawford is capable of providing productive backup snaps anywhere on the DL.

Can he play FS ?

Nice hyperbole. He doesn't finish consistently but he does generate pressure consistently.

Whine about his salary. Do not whine about his play.

Crawford is a solid, efficient, and boring right end, but he gets the job done there. Sets the edge well and stuffs the run, and gets more pressure than the four sacks last year indicate.

With Maliek Collins, David Irving, Datone Jones, the immortal Brian Price, and now Jihad Ward at tackle, I don't think Crawford needs to kick back inside unless there's an injury. But that's just my opinion.
