Jared Allen didn't want to be here. Period. Can anyone blame him? Nope. This is sh*t franchise. He wanted to leave and Peterson had no other chocie but to trade him. It's as simple as that. And unfortunately he is a hard guy to replace. But Peterson got the best value he could get in return. It's the Chiefs fault for drafting sh*t. If you want something to complain about, look no further then the draft.

Brandon Marshall didn't want to be in Denver. Chad Johnson (ocho cinco) demanded a trade out of Cinncinati.
Simply because a player uses this leverage tactic with the press, doesn't mean that a team has no choice but to move them. A savvy move would have been to find a way to get him signed.
However, this happened two years ago, under a different GM and different head coach. I agree that the milk's been spilt, let's move on.
