Zach Allen

[New Mexico]

I haven't seen or heard much about him since preseason started. Can somebody tell me what the general impressions are of him? Thanks.

THey are good! He’s a hard worker and smart. With that said, D-linemen normally take some seasoning to come of age. Calais Campbell didn’t see the field outside of special teams in his rookie year.

Blessing that we drafted him, and he'll be an immediate contributor this year.

Long term? Too early to say, but he's got a chance to be a very good player.

 

[GoldGloveschmidt]

Very promising player in my opinion. I like Dogbe too.

He flashed against the Vikings

 

[SeattleCard]

Looked great against Minn.. excited to see him develop

If he can play like Kyle Williams did then that would be really great.

The impact on overall DL stability cannot be overstated. When a young rook like Allen is solid, it means at least 1/5 or 1/6 of your starting and backup D-linemen are solid. We need that.

I think his floor is our version of Brett Kiesel.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

To me he looks like the new KVB

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how well he’s played. He hasn’t been pushed around and his agility has enabled him to make plays.

Gym rat
Coach on the field
Isn't the most physically gifted, but finds a way to get it done
Watches a ton of tape
Plays more with his head than with his athletic ability
Extremely hard worker

Was a Steve Keim pick so I am understandably pessimistic.

No lunch pail reference?

Have to since he is white.

white = lunch pail, blue collar, gym rat
Black = well spoken.
