TheKillerNacho Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Crawford was a journeyman defensive lineman, and ends his nine year career with 35 starts, and 18 sacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchFalcon Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Hope he makes Canton as a Falcon.. oh wait. Good for him that he made his career last and he seems to be quitting on his own terms. Hope his savings will last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 I thought he was going to be a day two pick, I thought the Raiders got a steal snagging him in the 5th... not so much. He was a decent rotational player for Dallas after a couple years adjusting to the NFL. He and Grady Jarret where a really nasty duo one year but that seems like it was a fluke for Crawford. 1/3rd of his career sacks came in that season.

lomaxgrUK Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 One of the best English players in NFL history. Doesn't sound much, but we don't get many 10 year vets playing in the NFL. Congrats, Jack. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFan13 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Good for Jack you've done well my guy now get some rest and enjoy it. Thought he played hard when he was a Falcon and never gave up on plays even if his talents weren't that of some others on the team i feel he made more plays than they did at times anyways.

VigilantZombie Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Might not have been a superstar but I always thought he was a respectable rol3 player for the teams he was on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To bad he had his production playing for other franchises. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonStark Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Funny story about Crawford. I went to Penn State, and one weekend we threw a pretty big party at our house off campus. He shows up out of no where pretty late with some girl and in conversation, notices our N64. My roommates and I took Super Smash Bros way too seriously and he decided to challenge us. He picks DK (who is probably one of the easiest players to beat) and my roommate gives me a look like "this poor guy is gonna get destroyed". Well, Crawford ended up being by far the best DK I've ever seen and we ended up playing right through the party into the early morning, all while the girl is trying to drag him back to her place. The guy was awesome. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
