Multiple media outlets have been reporting that the Chiefs have been in talks with both the Vikes and the Bucs for franchised DE Jared Allen. The Vikings obviously have a better pick to offer up (17th) as opposed to our 20th pick, we might have some pieces that could fit in with the Chiefs. I have been saying for months, that we have too many guys on our roster, and we will have to make a move at some point, this might be that time.
Would Greg White, Chris Simms, and a 2nd round pick do it?
What about Jovan Haye, a 1st and a pick next year?
I’ll post these scenarios to our Chiefs blog at Arrowhead Addict, and see what they say.

Chris Simms?? Serious???? You can keep him!
I would love to see the Bucs get Allen. He is just turning 26 this month. But he may be a DWI away from a one-year suspension. Also, the Chiefs dont want to pay him. Therefore, the offer should not be too high IMHO. A 1st & Haye, or a 1st, a 5th, & a 5th next year maybe. Frankly, I am not thrilled by anybody who will be avaiable at #20, & Allen is a proven commodity, not a prospect. So the effort should be made.
When your QB’s are Brodie (I was trained by Mike Shula) Croyle, and Damon Huard, I woulnd’t be discounting any QB’s.
If you truely think you can get away with not giving up at least a 1st and 2nd, you are out of your mind.
As a Chiefs fan I would rather have the draft picks. A 1st and 3rd would work. I think that is what the Vikings will have to give up. Carl is trying to play hardball and go for a first and second. The players you are talking about don,t really jump out to me.
