WILL ALLEN HEADING TO MIAMI?



We're hearing indications that free agent cornerback Will Allen soon will be signing with the Miami Dolphins.



Allen is a former first-round selection of the New York Giants, but he never displayed on a consistent basis first-round ability. He was eclipsed from the outset of his career another corner drafted that same year with the same first name, William Peterson, and the Giants extended Peterson's rookie contract without ever showing any serious decision to be keep Allen.



In Miami, Allen gets the best chance to become the player he's never been. Coach Nick Saban's specialty is the defensive backfield, and we've got a feeling he could yank four guys from the kitchen of a local Denny's and with a few weeks of practice turn them into guys who could make a periodic play.

He's not very good, not really a big deal.

I hope not. That would be a pretty good signing for the fins.

A wash out for the Giants doesn't say much for him that is for sure.
