But, Allen put up 9 sacks as a rookie. In training camp, DV talked about how "strong" JA was. The only thing that makes sense is JA is terrific at using leverage. Hence, he could "play strong" even though he had poor weight room numbers.

Yeah it really makes no sense. I remember seeing Allen bull rush right through Levi Jones last year who probably outweighs Allen by 60 or 70 pounds.
