RUMOR: Bruce Allen to Redskins?

[BigHairedAristocrat]

Another thought - If Allen came here in any capacity, it increases the likelyhood that John Gruden could land here - perhaps as the OC.

I'm not a huge Gruden fan, but he's certainly an upgrade over Sherman Smith. If theres one thing this offense needs, its fire. Grudens the type of guy who could definitely get guys fired up.

I don't see Gruden taking an OC post. He could sit out this year and come back as HC next year for someone.

Gruden is also good with QBs, but in that case I'd worry about the "too many cooks in the kitchen" cliche as far as Jason Campbell is concerned. Zorn has already started molding him.

Sherman Smith and Zorn are also very close friends. I don't see Smith getting fired. I have a feeling adding Gruden to our staff would complicate more than help.

Which quarterbacks are you talking about?
