Here's the Danny Shelton replacement. To this point in his career, he doesn't qualify as anything more than a shell of a shell of a shell of a shell.

d%#*!@t, I want to see some offensive signings that I can get excited about....nothing but crickets from the Pats !
You could say much the same of many of BB's front 7 signings (e.g., KVN, Ayers, Hicks).
This shows that we should wait further into the season to evaluate who Belichick has acquired. We might wait at least 3 full hours!I hit agree until I realized we traded for all 3 of those guys midseason which is a very different situation from open free agency.
Fact: You don’t know a damn thing about him. Since when are DT tackle and sack stats useful, especially with the defense that the Pats run? Eagles fans who have actually seen him play like him a lot and say that he is hella underrated.
Every year, the same. Posters want the team to overpay for the TOP free agents on offense, almost all of which are free agents because their old teams wouldn't pay them.
I shouted "TOP" because we did sign a WR who is likely our #4 at the moment.
So, coming in, Allen is a shell of 2019 Shelton, which was a shell of 2016 Shelton, which was a shell of 2016 Allen Branch, which was a shell of Wilfork.
- Fact: He went from a backup on the Eagles to a starter on the Bucs, and lost that starting job after 8 games.
- Fact: As of now, he's a 1:1 Shelton replacement, but Shelton was getting starts and having at least some decent games.
- Fact: Shelton had 3 sacks in 2019. Allen has 2.5 sacks in his career.
Shell of a shell of a shell of a shell.
Run stuffer is an area of need. I like the signing. Will every post be a lament on the loss of Brady? Get over it.
Shoulda just re-signed Shelton, Billy...You received maybe 85 cents/dollar in this swap.
Allen is over 1-1/2 years older than him, is less explosive, and is Not a pocket-collapser.
