He was garbage at G lol but just like Parker will have a solid game every once in a while

He'll be a lot better at LG than either positions on the right side. If he improves on the penalties and becomes a top 12-15 Guard, that's a win whether he was over drafted or not.

Slight misnomer there......of course Crosby is going to have more pressures that Watt, because Watt turned 23 of those pressures into actual sacks 😁😁 

If Crosby is going to be one of the top paid DEs he has to convert those pressures into sacks IMO. He has potential to be great but I think he needs to take that next step.

It's hard to convert pressures into sacks when he's constantly double teamed and held. He wreaks havoc in the backfield whether he gets sacks or not though.

A win, no. But he performed much better as a left guard. I still didn't like the pick however. I wanted Fitzgerald. LOL. I'm rarely a homer. I believe I've only been a homer with three players. Hockanson, Fant and now Linderbaum.

Now I do agree he was held a lot last year, but he probably wasn't held any more than Watt, just that we didn't get the penalties. I don't recall him being double teamed that often though. Listen, I do love him as a player but my point is that pressures are very good but sacks end drives. A pressure on 3rd down and the QB can still complete the pass but a sack is end of drive. Plus you get fumbles with sacks too. I love Crosby but I feel he needs to still take that next step and deliver 12+ sacks together with his high number of pressures.

I don't disagree with you.

current cap space 17m. still waiting for these guys to be cut, any day now 

  • Littleton 11.8m Post June 1st
  • Nassib 8.0m  Post June 1st
  • Nick K 7m Post June 1st

save up to 43m.. Good is 50/50 to get cut to save 4m

We can only choose 2 to be post June 1st cuts now but that does not help us with cap space until June 1st.  We still have to carry them on the books until then for cap purposes.
