Now that would be interesting... but would Allen even want that kind of job or would he want to be more involved in player selection? The one thing I don't want is a Coach/GM. Now, I don't have your sources, but one would think that all the big name coaches out there (Cowher, Shanahan, Gruden, Holmgren) recognize the value of having a GM. I think what they would want is to be hired as HC and then selecting the guy they wanted to be GM (Cowher might want to bring in marty, Gruden might want to bring in Allen, etc.) To a large degree, i see 2010 as being a "coaches market." There are A LOT of teams who may be competing for one of "The Big 4" and the Big 4 coachs have such strong resumes that should have no problem finding a team/owner that will allow them to dictate the front front-office structure, not the other way around.
