We traded Jared Allen

[Red Dawg]

Seriously,. This organization traded Jared Allen. Just think about that.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

It was worth it too

[Red Dawg]

No it wasn't.

[Jewish Rabbi]

Who has gotten more ass - Jared Allen or Jared Fogle?

[LoneWolf]

Seriously,. This organization traded Jared Allen. Just think about that.

It was a great trade.

[Marcellus]

It was never a popular opinion but I watched every play that guy had as a Chief and I dont remember a single clutch big defensive sack or play in his career. Surely there are one or 2.

Dont remember any big plays with the Viking either.

He was like a dude who hit a HR in the top of the first every other game and was never heard from again the rest of the game. Seemed like 90% of his sacks were in the 1st half of games.

DJ and Eric Berry have had more memorable and impactful plays than Allen did.

[KC Hawks]

Meh. We ended up getting Jamaal Charles.

[hometeam]

No it wasn't.

Think about Back to the Future, and how he has the picture of his family that changes depending on what he does in the past.

Except you have a picture of Jamaal Charles. And he just disappeared.

Smooth move McFly.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

No it wasn't.

Jamaal charles gave us some great years

[Rain Man]

He's 36 years old. We should get whatever we can out of him.

[Bugeater]

It was the right thing to do at the time. How many Super Bowls did he help the Vikings win?

[threebag]

Who has gotten more ass - Jared Allen or Jared Fogle?

Does kid ass count?

[Marcellus]

:eek:

[DaFace]

:shrug:

[KC Hawks]

This organization traded up for Patrick Mahomes. Can you believe that?

[Discuss Thrower]

Was Jared Allen gonna help Damon Huard, Tyler Thigpen or Matt Cassel win games without the benefit of Branden Albert or Jamaal Charles?

Nah.

In a vacuum, it's a good trade if you give up one guy and get multiple years of production out of two other guys.

[Simply Red]

ugh dude really? This is even worse than my ham loaf thread.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

They traded Allen, who had 85 AV after leaving the Chiefs for Charles, who had 70 with the Chiefs, and Branden Albert, who had 33. I can't remember if the third man was Cottam or Morgan, and they had 3 and 2 AV, respectively.

The Chiefs won the trade.

He had a game-sealing sack against the Chargers during a season where they were good and we were bad. I was there. May have been his first or second season.

[HemiEd]

ugh dude really? This is even worse than my ham loaf thread.

We had about 80 hundred threads about that trade at the time. Sure glad to see another one. :(

He was about two beers away from getting a long suspension from the NFL and the Chiefs ended up with a haul for him.

[Red Dawg]

I am thrilled with all the interest in this thread. Thank you KC and I am thankful for Charles.

[BigRedChief]

The Chiefs won the trade.yep.

[wazu]

We traded Tony Gonzales for Javier Arenas.

All of it meant nothing. No titles so all of it was a waste. I love Charles but no titles so who cares. That's what the NFL thinks.

[Marcellus]

Again not sure that qualifies but yea I'm sure he had a few of those. But nothing epic.

I mean I can remember big game changing plays in big games by DJ, Berry, DT, etc...but none by Allen.

Maybe due to lack of big games he was in? :shrug:

[Chief Roundup]

Don't post drunk.

[Marcellus]

All of it meant nothing. No titles so all of it was a waste. I love Charles but no titles so who cares. That's what the NFL thinks.

Doesn't that work both ways? I mean Allen and Charles can compare rings.

Charles was much more of an impact player though. I mean who won more games for KC?

[Red Dawg]

Don't post drunk.

Who said I was drunk? Just stirring up the past my man.

[HemiEd]

Well, then, you could say that about 100s of Chief players for the last almost 50 years.

I was livid when Allen got traded but ended up being a great trade and it was fun watching JC and Brandon Albert when he was playing well.

[Rain Man]

We traded Tony Gonzales for Javier Arenas.

Yes, but then we traded Javier Arenas for Anthony Sherman, who is still playing today, 21 years after Gonzalez was drafted.

[Marcellus]

Thats a hell of a long career to get out of a single draft pick.

Oh, we had fun. That's great, I didn't realize that. Maybe it would be more fun to win the damn SB.

[Eleazar]

We won the Jared Allen trade by a mile.

That fuck.

[Red Dawg]

We won the Jared Allen trade by a mile.

We didn't win anything and neither do they so what the hell are you talking about.

[FAX]

Again? Damn.

Good job, Veach.

[NJChiefsFan]

I mean, yeah. I loved the guy, but as most said, the Chiefs did very well in the trade. Would do again.

[Eleazar]

Sorry they traded away your great white hope

[NJChiefsFan]

It's pretty well accepted that when a person says won a trade they mean that the team got the better end of the deal. Charles was a stud(pay attention Nandi) and Albert did well. We did very well in that trade.

[T-post Tom]

22 sacks in his 8th year. Wow.

[Best22]

This organization has more Superbowls than almost half the league

Can you believe that?

[NJChiefsFan]

The NFL is a very top heavy league when it comes to actual titles. Other sports get a bad rap but the NFL, even during it's height of "balance" over the past 20 years is still very unbalanced.

The MLB, for all the crap it gets for not being balanced, has had more winners during that time span. Even a team that lives pretty close to our beloved Chiefs.

All that being said though, that's a very interesting stat.

[PmCakes]

Don't jinx us!

[Why Not?]

This is an odd response considering you started the thread.

[TinyEvel]

Yah but he was a kneeler tho.

[ptlyon]

:harumph:

It is getting to be ham loaf time :hmmm:

[Couch-Potato]

If you're upset over getting Jamaal Charles for Jared Allen...I'll be interested to hear how you feel about what we end up with for Marcus Peters lol

[Rudy tossed tigger's salad]

The Chiefs won the trade.

Assuming Charles would have been available 3 picks later, and knowing he was first of the 3rd round selections, it's reasonable to believe that he would have been the pick (at 76) without the trade. Allen was traded for Morgan, Cottam, and Albert. Chiefs lose.

The three teams who would have had to pass on Charles were Minnesota (Peterson), San Francisco (Gore extension), and Carolina (Selected Stewart round 1, DeAngelo Williams 3rd year)

True, but the MLB has a different structure, in which individual players are less valuable

The refs can be bad but it's still KC's fault for not being a tad more successful in the playoffs (1afccg appearance since 1970)

[Rasputin]

Yes, but then we traded Javier Arenas for Anthony Sherman, who is still playing today, 21 years after Gonzalez was drafted.

This organization has done a whole lot worse than this dude. This was actually a great trade.

And got JC among others, GTFOH with this shit.

Yeah I'd say a "tad" better is a fair expectation.

[L.A. Chieffan]

Dumb trade still.

[Deberg_1990]

Liked him better as a long snapper

[Chiefnj2]

IIRC, the year he was traded Allen ended up with more sacks than the entire Chiefs team.

He might repeat that feat this year :D

they also chose grbac over gannon
