If he's cheap enough, hell yeah, sign him. We had that other thread about Arthur Jones and Lamarr Houston; I'd take Jared Allen over either of them any day - and he'd probably cost less.

Jared Allen does not fit the scheme. He's too small to play 3-4 end and you don’t take a guy who has played with his hand in the dirt for 10 years and make him into an outside linebacker. If you want to upgrade the pass rush with a veteran, then Lamarr Woodley is a better investment for the Packers.

I absolutely would NOT want another Neal-like experiment - making him an OLB. I also agree he isn't suited to be a full time 3-4 DE. However, as a fairly low cost pass rush specialist - hand in the dirt, I like that idea. Same side as Matthews/Opposite side as Matthews, either way sounds pretty good.

I suppose Allen will demand too much money, though.

It would be a pretty sweet burn on the Vikings to sign him for two years, and win two Super Bowls. But realistically, if you would sign Jared, then just flip back to a 4-3 and have Matthews put his hand in the dirt and rush the passer.

Zero2Cool (7h) : new site, text editor gooder even on phone

beast (8h) : Oh yes, sometimes they make using a cellphone tough. I just wanted to make sure it was the correct article, & thank you for pointing it out.

jdlax (9h) : I can't believe one of my teams went out and wablammo just up and acquired one of the best players in the world overnight

dfosterf (14h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (14h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.

beast (14h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (19h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (19h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (19h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (21h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (21h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (21h) : umm... what?

wpr (21h) : I am stunned

Mucky Tundra (21h) : RICKEY SCOOPS WAS RIGHT AGAIN!!!

Mucky Tundra (21h) : ITS HAPPENING

buckeyepackfan (21h) : DEAL IS DONE

buckeyepackfan (21h) : MICAH IS COMING TO GREEN BAY!!!!!!!!!

wpr (28-Aug) : Me do-ed it gooderly,

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
