Recent Beau Allen Notes
Beau Allen
strengths
Fires out of his stance and plays with a physical, mean motor, engaging double-teams and holding the point of attack. Allen isn't flashy, but does the dirty work and takes care of business in the trenches. Displayed excellent upper-body strength with 30 reps at pro day.
weaknesses
Is not an elite athlete. Brings little to the table as a pass rusher. Good complementary player, but does not consistently dominate one-on-one matchups. May be able to serve as a rotational body, but does not make enough plays on his own to project as much more.
