Allen needs to dry out and get real. The momentum of more-than-a-hand-slap discipline is building. He will be the lone soldier yelling that tank to halt when it's running over him.

What do you expect Jared Allen to say publically at this point? His handling of the current contract situation is the anti-thesis of humility. |

Of course, none of this suspension and conviction stuff matters now anyway.
Allen's agent is adamant that they will not negotiate a long-term contract with KC going forward. The situation appears to be irreparable. Trade him now. |

Humility has nothing to do with this situation. Allen is ready to enter the big payday and big contract of his career. And please don't tell me that remaining clean and sober for the 2007 season is going to change anything. 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.

Not exactly the qualities you're looking for in someone you plan to committ millions of dollars to over the course of several years. As was said a few posts back, he needs to keep his nose clean and have an amazing 12 games on the field this year when his suspension's over. Earn the big contract next offseason, and get rid of the red flags. That would be the smart way to approch this. |

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. |
