| Re: Was it too much for Jared Allen
I'm stunned that more people aren't in love with the move. In fact, I think its a good move for both teams.
A pass rush is the biggest need on this team, by far. This pick adds that. The Vikings potentially have the best defense in the league now.
As for the perceived weak offense, I think thats overblown. Sure, Jackson makes mistakes. But he also showed in could go a few games in a row without making the dumb mistakes. It makes sense that just being 1 year more experienced will decrease the number of those mistakes. Not to mention that an improved defense will help the field position, so instaed of having to drive the team 80 yards, he'll only have to drive them 60 yards.
