Out of Allen's 10 seasons, 8 of them he's recorded double-digit sacks. A solid stop-gap player at a position that is needed badly.

Allen-McClain/Hayden-Melton-Crawford

Draft Crichton in the late 1st/early 2nd and have Selvie, Bass and maybe even Brent as rotational guys

as long as it's not a huge deal, and the commitment isn't long.....
He can still get to the QB without question, and he would be a mentor.

By the time all is said and done the Ware restructure may have been the best course of action. Allen wants the kind of money Peppers got.

I do understand how highly unlikely this is but if the Cowboys could get both Melton and Allen I would feel a little better about our D-Line going into the draft.

I'm not looking forward to older stop gap players. Even those that may still be good. This team needs to find young talent and groom them. If someone is over the age of 26 I am not overly excited. By the time this blind pig of a team finds the proverbial acorn, the older talent wouldn't even be on this team and we would be hoping that the new talent was okay. Why not play them and find out as soon as possible? Just my opinion.

Allen and Melton would be an amazing fix for losing hatcher and ware. Melton is 5 years younger than Hatch and Allen is the same age but more productive and way nastier than Ware. Draft Calvin prior and best DE in rd 2.

Any scenerio that has Melton and Allen here involves a long term deal to make it work financially.. Not sure if thats the approach we want to take. I thought Peppers or Allen would take 3 or 4 million a year but clearly thats not the case.

If we can get Melton and Allen, I'd be happy. We still need to go after Donald or Jernigan in the draft though. Fix that front 7!

same here, 1-2 year deal wouldn't be bad, drafting dline 1st and 2nd rounds would just make this better, im still wondering why they haven't released Durant too clear some space
