Absolutely crazy. I don't think he's gonna develop much more than he is because his game just isn't making plays on the ball. It never has been so expecting it to happen 6 years into his career is not terribly reasonable.
But with age/experience should come consistency. And he has a pretty stout cap figure next year so I wonder if tacking another couple years on that to lower the cap hit shouldn't be something we consider next off-season.
He's been a really solid addition.

I've kinda changed my defensive philosophy recently. He kinda plays into this with what you're saying, but in general, the defensive philosophy here should be just get the team to not score TD's.
Hold them to FG's? Fine
Punts? Even better
Turnovers? Sure, but don't take any chances or risks. Just do your job, hold them to FG's or punts and with our offense, we'll win 90% of the games we play.
