could be like the wil shields deal, where he came back the next week.

if he takes a pay cut, it could be exactly like the Will Shields deal.

I expect him to resign unless someone loads him up, which I don't see happening.

A few years back they were about to trade him to the lions but he did not wnt to go. He wanted to go to the Raiders but they were not willing to giv up enough for him. I know he went to college out there and more than likel lived some where clse to there so he might want to go home.

Professor

it would be a good move for the raiders.

He IMO should get offered a good deal somewhere, he still has 2 maybe 3 years in him depending on how he keeps his body, watch Minny though.

A NEW HOME FOR ALLEN
Former Cowboys guard Larry Allen is expected to draw interest from the Oakland Raiders and Seattle Seahawks, for interesting reasons.

Allen owns a home 20 minutes from Oakland's training complex and would like to live there full time. The Raiders could use a guard like Allen, so there's a fit there.

But there's an even larger fit in Seattle, where the Seahawks could plug in Allen into the spot Steve Hutchinson vacated. Landing Allen would take away some of the sting from losing Hutchinson to the Vikings.

Detroit also had interest in Allen two years ago, when the Cowboys debated releasing him. But Oakland and Seattle make more sense. Of course, it could come down to dollars and cents.

The talk here in Dallas is he will be back. Allen wants to retire as a Cowboy. I don't think Jones will get in the way of that. He could be paid under the table to add to his contract.

Professor

paid under the table, are you serious. That takes the cake. He will go to wherever offers him the most money. If he wants to retire as a cowboy then when he done he can sign a one day contract like emmit smith.

bigboy

I agree with you there, he will almost surley chase the money and take the combination of $$ and close to home, then take a one day deal with Dallas to retire a Cowboy.
