A 26-year-old DE who’ll want at least $20 million guarantees, will have to switch from right end to left end, has two DUIs to his credit and owns a bar vs. a 27-year-old, two-time Pro Bowl CB with health problems. I’d love to see Allen’s mullet hanging out of a midnight jade helmet too, but there is no way hell I’d give up the 19th pick to make it happen.

Tracer it is a very steep price, but worth it. The going rate is a first and third round pick right now. Lito has the value of a high 2nd round pick at best right now. You have to look at it from the Chiefs perspective. Why would you give up Jared Allen for an injury prone CB, when you get a first and Bryant McKinne from the Vikings? You wouldn’t. Lito is not even close to enough. If the Eagles don’t give up the 19th pick then they wont get Jared Allen.
