I have no idea what this means, but I really like how it sounds.

Better question is how much can his trade value go up.

Whelp this is shot to hell now.

Should have traded him when we had the chance. The way some teams will toss out picks for QBs who literally do nothing but complete a few passes in limited game action might of had someone stupid and desperate enough to bite with his lol undefeated no interception stretch. Now, noone in the world would care about this scrub.

He never had any real trade value. That was a Huddle creation.

Whos to say? How many times do you see teams trade for a guy they think they can mold or reclaim? Some pretty awful QBs have made that list. Jimmy G was traded for a 2nd rounder with like 700 something yards and a few tds. Teams do strange stuff based on very little or no sense at all hopping to be the one to make a move. All it takes is one and teams, especially badly run ones, do some crazy stuff for QBs. Of course this team actually believed Allen could be something (Hence a badly run organization) but it would have been great to have seen if anybody would have tossed a flyer on him at the time and ran with it

Anyone with eyeballs could probably see that Allen had little trade value. As was said at the time by an NFL reporter(I forget who, unfortunately) the rest of the league largely viewed him as a backup QB at best. And this was said during his first couple of starts this year, when his hype was at a fevered pitch.

You can say that about a lot of players and yet still many get drafted, traded, picked up in free agency etc. If every player could be singled out by eyeball test well noone would have crappy players. Point is if teams seem to be willing to take more risks on QBs, even when they have little playing time or had sucked why not. Even backups or potential backups can come at a price. If 28 teams didnt want him,  but 2 thought he could develop into a starter, and 2 just a backup well there you go. Get something for him since sucky teams make sucky risks lol.  I mean honestly anything for the dude would have been better than absolute zero lol
