Zack Baun signed with the Eagles, 1-year/3.5M

Allen is a scheme coach, not a player coach.

Allen couldn’t care less how good a player is if they aren’t good at running his scheme. He’s not going to alter his gameplan to help or fit a player’s skill set. He keeps the players that operate well in his scheme and lets walk those who do not.

Some of the players he’s let leave have thrived in other teams because those teams recognized the talent and put them in positions to succeed.

Well said. I have no clue how he couldn't figure out how to make Baun work. Everyone else knew it, God knows how many threads there were on it. He refused to see common sense and tried to make him an off the ball linebacker. It was only after Ellis's success that the light finally clicked but by then it was too late.

Davenport and Turner were the two defensive ends that were drafted because they fit the kind of DE he wanted in his scheme.

I can't wait to be done with the grabby CB's that he loves. God knows how many times it cost us a game because all the other team needed to do was throw deep and they'd get a pass interference.
