Carl will still hold the previous convictions over him and try to low ball him - as that is what the GM's job is to do; without making the situation so untenable that the player's agent declares he is refusing further talks.

No he is not.
NEXT YEAR is the year of his big payday, not this year. He is a restricted free agent for a reason - because he was a FOURTH ROUND to whom the Chiefs gave a chance.
And if Carl doesn't hold those previous convictions over Allen's head, he's NOT DOING HIS JOB.
Staying clean and sober for any amount of time does not EVER change the fact that if Allen gets caught for something as simple as shoplifting in the future, he's out for a year.
