Jonathan Allen WAS, DE (1 Viewer)

I am looking at making a deal to acquire Allen.  Our league is big play scoring with points for QB Hits and TFL.  It seems like Allen might be a guy ready to break out.  Any thoughts?

I think he's an ascending player (gotta love a 3rd year DE!) that's a solid starter in the DE2 range. Playing on a team with an offense projected as one of the worst in the league should provide plenty of opportunity. He's a good low-cost/undervalued target with upside. As a 3-4 DE that upside is likely capped, especially if they are doing a lot of run-stopping in late game scripts. 

(no idea what his qb hits total looked like, though)

Unfortunately, I’m a lifelong Skins fan. While I like what they have been piecing together on defense, I would be hesitant with Allen. He has looked good in spurts, but seems to always have nagging injuries. 

If he’s fairly low cost, then I’d take it.

pro football reference has this info on the player page. 15 QBhits last year for Allen
