Sure, he's 6'6'' but he's also a relatively thin 270. Our ends traditionally eat up blockers. Obviously, he could be used as a 3rd down specialist. I mean it's a great addition to our pass rush mix, but I just don't see us tinkering with our D-Line or our LB's at this point. And, toss in TT's draft pick mentality and the backlash from the MN fanbase for trading him in division to the Packers. I just don't see it.


I thought it was a hypothetical question.... :lol:


Supreme simply offered up the notion he would trade a 6th.

Regardless of what any of us thinks, there's a snippit in the feed above and it was mentioned during the game: 50 of 53 Packers have never suited up for another team. Case closed?

I'd like to see the percentage of downs where our defense just rushes four guys like a standard 4-3 defense?

Except for first down or say 2nd and short, that's really the only main times the defense is lined up in a traditional 3-4 look.

Yeah, we're not trading for Allen. Vikings would make us pay the "division team tax" and we probably wouldn't even come close to meeting the asking price if that weren't a factor.

We should totally spend the next 12 pages discussing a stupid hypothetical trade that will never happen.
