Pff isn’t be all, end all.
Trey

Snaps - 823
Crosby
OVR - 74.1

...based off the only year of his career that Maxx Crosby has been injured enough to miss games, and playing while needing ankle surgery.
I'd like to see the numbers from 2023 or 2022 where he averaged playing over 1,080 snaps and averaged 89.5 tackles, 22.5 tackles, and <4% missed tackles.
Trey is a great pass rusher and we need to extend him, but that's a bit of a silly comparison and it's okay to accept he's less of a complete player than Crosby. Hendrickson is already puking on the sidelines playing 65-70% of the snaps. There's zero chance he gets as many sacks as he has been getting if he has to play an extra 300-400 snaps a year against the run like Crosby does.
