Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said "sky is the limit" for fourth-year DT Tyrone Crawford.
PFF echoed that sentiment by calling Crawford "a secret superstar." After missing 2013 with a torn Achilles', Crawford emerged as a solid three technique last year in Rod Marinelli's 4-3 scheme. He made his presence felt as a pass-rusher by pressuring the quarterback 29 times. With Crawford entering a contract year, Jerry Jones will have to open up his checkbook to keep the talented 25-year-old in Dallas.
It would be nice to have some good news on our interior DL.

Re: Tyrone Crawford
The chatter coming out of OTA's was about him. One article after another. Hope the kid stays healthy. We haven't had an anchor at DT in a long time. Had some really quality guys... but he has the makings of a legitimate "anchor".

Re: Tyrone Crawford
If Crawford has a big year for us, we will go very deep in the playoffs this year.

With our schedule this year, defending the run on defense will be key. And yes, and anchor at DT would be great. Would be nice to be in the top 5 stopping the run. Then we can unleash our pass rushers if we can make opponents one dementional.

Re: Tyrone Crawford
We'll find out about our run defense pretty quick. By the time those first two games are done, we'll know.

That is if you think the Giants and Egals are a true measuring stick. I sure the hell don't. I want to know what we have now vs. the best. Too bad we can't open up with the Packers. Find out right out of the gate against the best qb in the business.

I "think" that the Iggles plan on running and running and running and running...
We manage them - we should be OK.

I fully expect this upcoming season the Egals will be doing a lot of crying and crying and crying.

Nothing would make me happier... and I mean that in the most sincere way possible.
Although - if the ViQueens met a similar fate at the same time that might be more joy than a person should be allowed.

Another failed experiment. I hope he saves the $$ for future draft picks.
