The guy ****ing sucks. He had his chance and showed he's nothing special whatsoever. Backup level player.

But seriously, you spend a first round pick on a 3-4 OLB, and you're worried about him in coverage? Uh, hello...if it's a passing play, I want him heading TOWARDS the QB.
That's what you want.

Hell, that's what I want.

But in Crennel's system, you need an OLB that can cover.

He doesn't send both the LOLB and ROLB after the QB all that often.

Vrabel's cover skills are what made him so valuable in the Patriots system.

He only had one season in which he had 9.5 sacks (2003) in Crennel's system, while Willie McGinest had one season in which he had 9 sacks (2002).

The remaining seasons they had around 5 sacks each, because Crennel had one or the other in coverage most of the time.
