MERGED: Opinions on Jason Allen

good pick considering we had a glaring need at secondary. Our defense gave up big plays on defense. We needed a good db. It was a good pick considering huff was gone.

It's funny they don't show all the other plays where Allen took Caddy and Ronnie down. A lot of other really good players got drilled by those two backs during their years at Auburn also. Whether now or late, you'll eventually agree that Allen is a bigtime player.

That was fast... the 1st person to have an "Allen" username...
 
Wow!!!

I feel the same way you do, I can't believe I waited for this, when he said that name I nearly died, with Greenway and Cromartie still available, I thought for sure it would be one of them. They could have waited till the 3rd round to get this guy, nobody wants him.

Talk about being negative but you take the cake:boohoo:

Don't you think that every option including trading down was evaluated by Nic and his team and ONE pick was made...Jason Allen

LIVE WITH IT!!!:tantrum:

Who knows how he will turn out...no one knows

Lets give it a bit of time before we slit our wrists or throw ourselves under the bus.

With your positive attitude you just might want to become a Jet fan
that way you can BOOO every draft pick and NOT stand out since quite a few Jet fans have the same negativity issues!!:eek:

Yeah, I'm obviously a Tennessee fan. I was just looking for some Dolphins message boards to see the fan reaction to the pick....not as good as I thought. Reminds me a lot of when the Giants picked our Safety Gibril Wilson a few years ago in the later rounds and the fans were complaining and didn't know much about him.....but he was a steal and is starting for them. I think, and many others agree, that Jason is a top 10 talent if there weren't some questions about the hip. It's unfortunate because that was his only injury in college, but he's 100% now and it was determined by a number of different specialist that it was not degenerative....and that was before a single NFL team doctor looked at him.

The ONLY question is his hip. If the Fins took him... they have done extensive research on his hip... and determined that he is ok...

Saban wouldnt have drafted him if he wasnt 100% confident in the hip.

Talent wise... we got a steal...

Ditto....Saban turned our team around in one year and suddenly he is an idiot. Also Justice continues to slide. The guy was caught picking up a hooker. A friggin crackhead. He has issues. I am not excited about the pick but I didn't make MSU, LSU, or the Phins good teams. Saban has left LSU with talent for days. I think he can evaluate talent.
 
So Right

Funny... but i think that says more about Ronnie Brown than Jason Allen... :D

Agreed! There are few if any backs in the NFL that would have not been rolled by those hits by Ronnie That clip has me fired up for Ronnie again now. I still wish we had Ricky in there with him but damn glad we still have Ronnie and looking forward to watching him do that to Bills, Jets, and pats DB's. The more I see and hear about Allen the more I am thinking if he stays healthy he will be a tremendous asset to our defense. Can't wait for the season to start :)
 
This is a good pick. Filled an obvious need at the secondary, and judging by the film I watched at yahoo.com, he's a speedy safety, just how I like them.
