Jared Allen makes our line among the best in the nfl. With that said, there is no chance we get him, the chiefs have already let the world know that he will absolutely be franchised. If he was not, he would get 12 to 15 million a year.

If we're gona break the bank for an interior lineman then why not go after Corey Williams from Green Bay.. He hasn't been franchise tagged and he had i think 8 sacks this year? Which is sick for being a DT. Imagine our DT rotation with corey williams lined up wit montgomery and cornelious coming in on passing situations

Funny how it's ok to overpay for certain guys.

Yeah, I've got mixed feeling about that. I hear what they're saying about Marcus Washington and Chris Wilson together being effective pass rushers. But why not just get one guy who can do that? And I thought they were pretty content with Montgomery and Golston's progress.

Of course, if they get a DE I don't think he should be a pass-rushing specialist like Wilson. He needs to be able to play the run effectively as well.

I think they're very content with Montgomery's progress, but Golston already is all that he'll ever be in the NFL. He's a very hard worker, but in the end isn't big enough, strong enough, or quick enough to be a front-line starter in the NFL. He's a good 3rd DT, good in a rotation. But if he were a full time starter I wouldn't feel great about the interior line.

Montgomery has the size and quickness to be force. But with Griffin getting older, I can see the logic for wanting a young DT.

I'm all for going after a quality young DT.

Corey Williams from GB fits that bill, but something tells me he'll be tagged..

I am too, but the key needs to be "young", and I'd prefer we get them in the draft. I will pass on Jared Allen. Remember Dana Stubblefield? He was a flat out stud for SF before we got him, then he turned into a flat out dud. These players are great in their respective systems, that does not mean that will translate to success in our system. For once I'd like to see us go get a great DT / DE in the draft...thinking Manley / Mann type players.

It's a very odd comparison, Stubblefield to Jared Allen. I'd like to hear why you think there's any commonality there, besides the fact that they'd both be paid big money to play D Line?

You may or may not be right about Golston, but he is 6-4 320 pounds. Thats ideal, for a tackle. He also ran one of the fastest 40yd dashes at the combine, for a DT.
