My question on Allen is do you really think he will not grow out of Aback with his size?

I'd love to see us get back to a Dwyer/ Allen type of home-run threat from the B-back on occasion. I just don't see Sims doing that.

I agree about Sims...I expect him to have a bigger year this year.
He didn't have one game with over a 100 yards last year...that shocked me when I looked back at the stats.

It's not really shocking to me. He got caught all the time. The thing that shocked me? His 5.6 average. I felt like he NEVER had a long run and the vast majority were with 3-4 yards (which are still awesome), but still... I'd like to be able to score from afar more and not put so much pressure on Tevin.

Allen was not a homerun threat as far as taking it to the house on a long run. Dwyer absolutely was. Allen was still good though because he ran very tough, broke tackles, and by the end of the year was hitting the mesh very hard and fast. I expect to see Sims approach Allen's type of production this year. He won't quite be that good, but will be pretty close.
