This one wasn't and it was the first one I looked at. You have no idea what you are talking about.

That was textbook. And couldn't have been against a better team. That game was fun, until the pick plays started to accumulate.

J Crawford must be asking for a fair bit of coin for a role player. Young, versatile, and can generate some pressure. He's the kind of smart signing teams in this league ought to be looking for. And this is the time when he ought to be getting a deal done. I wonder what's going on.

Uh huh... Yeah because you know better then the coaching staff and 31 other teams that don't want to shell out that much money for him. He's a great player, I was DEAD wrong. Lol you never seem to amaze me

So now you devolve into binary thinking where he is either JAG or great instead of the issue at hand. How droll.

Care to address that you were wrong in saying that all his sacks were coverage sacks? I thought that bull rush to the swim inside on Vollmer was pretty sweet.

Oh and before you go reductio again I will just add that one play doesn't make him a great player. I will say that he produced efficiently in a reserve role. You can put whatever generalization you want on that but your complaint about how he got his sacks is baseless.

They are likely offering him $3m AAV like they have been offering everyone else and he wants more. I would love to have him back.

I don't know how we would perform starting but you need rotation players. As a kid, Jimmie Jones and Tony Casillas were my favorite players. I loved the way that back up line with Jeffcoat performed.

There definitely is that point. For you, Jack Crawford may be one of those guys. For me, he would have been one of our young FAs I was most interested in paying. There's a spot on every team in this league for a four year player who can play any DL position and get you 4-5 sacks in a half-rotational role.

I thought for sure they would resign JCrawford. I agree, he was a nice piece. He played well last year for what he was asked to do

I agree completely... Never been impressed watching him playing as a DE, little better inside. Guess coaching staff feels the same way. Versatility isn't as attractive when he is a JAG at both positions. His sacks last year were coverage sacks when QB held ball too long.

He was active and got upfield without getting taken out of plays like some others. He is a Jimmy Jones type and has value

Huh? I was being sarcastic with the 'Great' comment. He wasn't as limited as you think he was. Take a look at his snap count, he played A LOT more then you suggest.

It's baseless? Take a look at his other 3 sacks... At least 2 of them I remember being coverage sacks. I'm sorry I just wasn't overly impressed by him. Gets stuck on way too many blocks. Always a guy you going to look to upgrade. He's not terrible, nor did I ever say he was. Being a JAG doesn't mean your terrible, just OK in every sense of the word. Just my 2 cents

You remembered before that all of them were coverage sacks. Now you change your tune. Whatever, sophist.

It wasn't lost on me that it was sarcasm. That doesn't prevent it from being an inane premise. Keep dissembling.

Tyrone, the guy who played with one arm.

You guys keep saying this as if no one in the league played hurt. Who's to say Jack Crawford didn't' play hurt? It wasn't a comment meant to knock Tyrone. It was more of a nod to the fact that Jack Crawford was a good in his role last year.
