Lost amid all the springtime talk about the contractual situations of Buffalo Bills offensive tackle Jason Peters and wide receiver Lee Evans is the fact that starting strongside linebacker Angelo Crowell only has one year left on his own deal.
While Crowell isn't a Pro Bowl-caliber O-line bookend like Peters -- who has three years remaining on his contract but held out of organized team activities because of a low salary -- or a gamebreaking force like Evans -- also a free agent-to-be next winter -- the bottom line is that the 26-year-old is an important piece of Buffalo's defense.
Although underappreciated around the National Football League, anyone who's watched Crowell on a regular basis since he entered the pros knows how dependable he usually is. Last season, playing behind an ineffective defensive line and alongside a pair of fill-in LBs fit for reserve roles, the 2003 third-round pick amassed 126 tackles, four passes defensed, two sacks, an interception and a forced fumble................
