Jared Allen is available for a 3rd

[Pessimist_cowboy]

would you do it ? if he was willing to structure a cap friendly contract ?

 

[TheSport78]

Yes, yes and YES.

 

[17yearsandcounting]

Why bother?

 

[DCBoysfan]

I would'nt do it, not sure Dallas can even afford to pay him at this point. With the Cap issues this team is facing they need to depend on the draft even more now.

 

[EPL0c0]

Before Sunday I would have said no. But seeing the lack of a pass rush, I'd be OK with anything. He's the same age as Ware, so that's not an issue. NOt sure if Dallas can afford even that though

 

[LucaBrasi]

No, this team is not a player away. They are several players away. Their drafts have been better the last 2-3 years, they need to hold on to draft picks. They arent going deep in the playoffs with or without Jared Allen

 

[Zimmy Lives]

No. I'd rather trade fro Ngata but he's not available. What about Marcus Spears?

 

[hra8700]

Would I trade a 3rd round pick for 8 games from a 31 year old defensive end at a cap hit of 8.4 million? Ummm....no. Neither would any NFL gm.

 

[bark]

How does he do with late game situational awareness ?

 

[TheSport78]

Well wait, IS he available for a 3rd or is this a hypothetical situation?

 

[LucaBrasi]

He's available to the rest of the league for a 3rd. Jerry would pay a 1st and 3rd. After all, he did give up a 4th and 7th for the immortal OJ Santiago.

 

[fifaguy]

need more help on the dline but his salary is too lofty

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

He would never play for a cap friendly contract but whatever.


No, I would not do it simply because I have heard on this board that Ware is completely washed up and we need to trade him, more times then I care to remember.

The truth is that in one more game played, Allen has exactly 1 more tackle and .5 sacks more then does DWare and he's played a year longer in the NFL. How can we like Jared for a 3rd but want to trade Ware for anything we can get?


Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

 

[Lonestar94]

2 HOFers on the same defensive line, plus an All-Pro Hatcher. DO IT!!

 

[supercowboy8]

For a 4th yes if he will sign a cap friendly deal. Not for a 3rd. We need to draft DL and OG with first three picks

did you read cap friendly contract ? guess not

he is the vikings want a 3rd

 

[neosapien23]

No, dallas needs to get rid of big contracts not get another.

 

[Future]

If the Vikings are asking a third, you might be able to talk them into something like a 5th and 7th. I'd be awfully tempted to do that.

 

[Deep_South]

I would certainly think about it. We brought in a guy back in the '90's named Charles Haley who helped a bit.
