Viking and Bucs talk about a trade for Chiefs? Jared Allen
The 26-year-old Jared Allen, suddenly the subject of heated-up trade talks, is in his prime ? and that may make him the most difficult to replace, if it came to that. The Chiefs have talked with the Minnesota Vikings and Tampa Bay Buccaneers about a trade involving Allen, who led the NFL in sacks last season. Allen is in Minnesota meeting with the Vikings today, and a visit to Tampa could follow soon. ?He was the most disruptive player on that defense, that?s for sure,? said former Chiefs quarterback Rich Gannon, now a game analyst for CBS. ?The thing I really like about him is that he plays with a lot of energy and effort. He doesn?t take plays off. He shows up in the running game. Those are things you like at that position. As a pure pass rusher, he runs the edge so well. It?s hard to find guys who can do that. ?When you lose a player like that, you don?t just find a replacement easily.? Allen had yet to discuss the particulars of a long-term contract with either the Vikings or Buccaneers. But a bigger obstacle could be an agreement between either team and the Chiefs on draft-choice compensation
Great another player to a rival. and shockey will probally go to the saints.
