Here's my deal. Yeah, people saw something in Alleman, just like Pioli, who saw enough to give up something of real value in return. Yes, I'm one of those idiots who think even 6th or 7th round selections can be meaningful.

That said, I'd rather have Alleman for o-line depth than a player who *might* be washed up because of injuries. Now, I guess this is where you have to trust your medical staff. If they say Lilja is fine, well, all right...

The problem with Allenman is that he's had back issues since the day he came into the league.

So what you have, really, is the choice between a guy who can't stay healthy (Allenman), and a guy whose knees may or may not be shot.
