And I would think it'd be incredibly stupid to draft a LB in the first round to put him at SAM, arguably the least impactful out of the 4-3 LB spots (at least in the Bengals scheme). Bengals need a new MIKE or WILL before they need a SAM.
Completely disagree if they were to say draft a Sam linebacker then said player would also double up as an edge rushers. So the player would have tremendous value. Also what makes Allen special is he has the athletic ability to play in coverage as a will or a MLB. It's just not his best position.
Also why are we forgetting guys like Lavar Arrington and Peter Bowlwhere both were in Marvins system and thrived as pass rushers from the OLB in his system.
