10 mo won't go down by himself

Lily

I've always rocked my baby to sleep and now were trying to get him to sleep on his own, gently without doing cry-it-out. He seems to really want to put himself down but he just rolls and tumbles in his crib nonstop for an hour or more. He would go longer but he starts to get very wobbly and sometimes bonks his head and I eventually pick him up. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get him to settle himself?
