By the way I will admit that it is now too late to be getting any quality.

At this point, it's not about money with Allen. It's about the team's problem with his off-the-field behavior vs. Allen feeling like he's being disrespected.
As for locking up LJ, there's no reason to do it. He just set a single-season record for carries. Don't give him the contract until you HAVE to, he might just break down.
And I would contend that there wasn't much quality in free agency to begin with. Edwards was actually one of the better players available.
