It's refreshing having adults in charge who know what they are doing.

I don't think they'll trade Allen. Payne/Newton/Allen is going to be real tough to deal with on a rotation.

I agree they won't unless a good offer comes in, i.e. swap for a top tackle. I'm not sure who would do that, while there will be teams that picked tackles the last 2 days, I'm not sure I see anyone that would definitely be looking to offload a 'spare'.

More likely they're looking at Newton as replacing Allen next year. But if they don't trade immediately and Newton shows starting level talent in camp, do they look to leverage Allen early?
