I was pretty fired up about Nate Allen by what I had read about him. Possible "Cover" Safety that tackles well enough to help in the run game. He was one of "My Guys" going into the season. Then I watched a game he played and I was quite dissappointed. I saw a playmaker on the youtube highlights. However, I saw a guy who was hesitant to make contact in a game. When he did attempt to make a tackle, he missed and he had a couple of sweeping arm tackles that the runner broke. So, I've removed him from my board because he's not physical enough for my tastes as a 2nd round pick.

Thanks for the info Roy. I knew there had to be a reason you left him off.
