That still makes me sad. I was so pissed, but when we drafted Albert i was like well maybe our offensive line will be decent. Ya right, Dude looks like he's regressing. I bet Jared is sitting there saying, i am so ****ing glad they traded me out of that mess.

Jared Allen would have been traded this year because he's really not suited for the 3-4. I'm sure he would have done "okay" but he's really suited for the 4-3. |

I think one of the main reasons we're switching to a 3-4 was that the guys got in here and decided that this defensive roster in essence had little to no talent to run an effective 3-4 OR 4-3 scheme, and therefore they might as well clean house and essentially start over. Hali had been a disaster in the 4-3 without Allen. Dorsey wasn't doing anything. DJ wasn't doing anything special. But if Jared Allen were still here, I think they'd be more inclined to try and put in some pieces around him and keep the 4-3 scheme. But really, Carl and Herm and Gunther did such a spectacular job of ****ing up this defensive front seven that there was really no clear elite building block there. You might as well dump the trash and start over... |

You have to remember that Jared Allen was coming off his second DUI at the time. The next one would have cost him a season. That wasn't the risk the Chiefs wanted to take at the time.
