Dolphins Have Interest In Dwayne Allen

[Swollcolb]

I'm told that the #Ravens, #Bills, #Dolphins & #Lions have preliminary interest in meeting with street free agent TE Dwayne Allen, who played last season with the #patriots, per source. Allen officially was listed on the league's transaction report today. #AndWereOff

I thought he was gonna be a beast coming out of college never really planned out, but good blocker depth type signing

I have a feeling every Patriots player, who is a free agent, is going to be linked to Miami at one point or another this offseason.

I can see us getting a veteran TE and not drafting another TE this year as that room is already very young so it'd make more sense to add a vet.

 

[mrbunglez]

This guys a great blocking TE.

 

[Marino1313]

Like this guy. Would be a great add

113 yards the last 2 years...don't we have some guys that can already do that?

He’s basically a 6th blocker, whose really good in pass pro, we don’t have anyone quite like that, also could play some fullback for us, something we haven’t used here in a few years but I have a feeling we will see more of. He’s the kind of glue guy that just helps the offense work better that people take for granted

Actually Durham Smythe played that role a little last season so did O’leary I believe.

 

[Swollcolb]

Durham Smythe wasn’t a dominant blocker by any means, better than Gesicki but not dominant, O’leary Was the best of the 3 but I still think Dwayne Allen would be an upgrade. O’Leary, Allen, Smythe, and Gesicki could be the 4 we go into the season with though and that’d be an improved Te group from what we had last year

We literally just drafted a blocking TE last year.

 

[bane]

Why bother with signing Allen when we are not evening trying at qb position this year according to that article by Jackson.

 

[hoops]

Major surgery on both hips pretty much robbed him of any play making ability years ago

 

[djphinfan]

Loved him coming out of Clemson, Haven’t seen him make a play since, injuries must of took his abiiity to run, he was so smooth and natural..

 

[dlockz]

If we are going to sign a TE for their blocking bring in Nick Boyle younger, fewer injuries and better recent production

 

[DuderinoN703]

Don’t sign anyone. They already have 3 TEs. If they’re trying to tank sign no one.
