Report: Jonathan Allen Given Permission to Seek Trade

[Coogiguy03]

They'll probably get 4 1st rounders for him with our luck (sarcasm)

sounds about right

 

[jazzcat22]

Whoa, I am surprised you didn't say swap players. Allen for Micah.
Does this mean you now like Micah?

 

[jazzcat22]

Rumors are they will consider releasing him if a trade doesn’t materialize; so it may not take much

Wait, I thought only the Cowboys FO does things like that.
Where is the outrage fellow fans?

 

[jazzcat22]

True ......you could see it coming, especially with his contract. He's a good leader.....I would think the Cowboys would certainly be interested if he's released or a low pick.

We have 5 - 5th round picks. But a 6th or 7th would be great. Jerry likes 1 years deals.

Quinn making room to grab Osa....

Quinn making room to grab Osa....

Or Garrett

 

[MyFairLady]

Younger stronger faster please.

Trading for him is nonsense. He is on a negative value contract. Washington will just release him.

I would offer him a one year non guaranteed deal for whatever he thinks he deserves and I would cut him at the first sign of it not working out.

He will want guaranteed money. Giving him anything substantial would be madness.

i'm just surprised I let a thread like this stay in here, pretty soon a guy like me will report EVERY player that gets released or gets permission to seek a trade which clearly could find a home in another area of this wonderful forum!!!!!

 

[Coogiguy03]

Quinn making room to grab Osa....

pretty much

 

[baltcowboy]

He might get released.

 

[Runwildboys]

30 yrs old, about to need another deal.

Wonder what draft competition they're asking?

Stupid autocorrect!!!

 

[Runwildboys]

Yeah I don't see why an up and coming team doesn't try to retain a great player. If I had to guess it's an age/production/pay formula which they don't think is worth it.

Probably counting on replacing him with a much cheaper draft pick.

 

[Risen Star]

Micah and next year's 1st.

If they hesitate, throw in a late rounder.

 

[DasTex]

Stupid autocorrect!!!

Lol

 

[Sydla]

Throw a couple of our comp picks at them and see if they bite.

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

He might get released.

Benefit though is offering them a meager draft pick to guarantee he doesn’t get persuaded to go somewhere else

They already did last year. Many had Jer’Zawn Newton going in the middle of the first round, but he fell to Washington’s second round pick

 

[Ranching]

He hates losing he shouldn't want to come here,

So, what you're saying is that we like losing?? I must like dumb threads, since I keep reading yours....or maybe I'm hoping that that you'll make sense one day. Please, share you thoughts.

Exactly, it's beneficial to lock in a desired player for a cheaper pick. It's a lot easier than competing with an open market.

 

[Tussinman]

He might get released.

If he doesn't get traded, he'll 100% get released.

Washington saves 16 million this year by cutting him and has no cap hit on him next year.

Advantage of not prorating a ton of money down the line, easier to get out of contracts towards the end (Jerry take notes)
