Beau Allen said his goodbyes to Philadelphia yesterday and now looks set to sign for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers:
#Bucs are expected to sign Eagles DL Beau Allen

Allen was a free agent, having completed his rookie deal with the Birds. He served as a key piece on an Eagles defensive line that rotated fluidly and saw little drop off with different personnel groupings.
For instance, and I don’t think this gets talked about enough, but Allen actually played 422 snaps last year while Tim Jernigan played 492. So Beau was actually in there 41% of the time while Jernigan played 48% of defensive downs.
BLG broke it down here:
Line depth was important in 2017 and Allen was a big part of that.
The Eagles are adding Michael Bennett and Haloti Ngata to compensate for the loss of Allen and perhaps Vinny Curry as well, though the defensive end can remain on the roster after the Eagles made salary cap room by cutting Brent Celek and restructuring Lane Johnson’s contract.
Cheers, Beau.

Great story. Compelling, and rich.
Nothing on Shander quitting Twitter because Nat Egg wants nothing to do with him?
Shander is on Grindr now.
Shander is on your husband now.
I’d like Shander to be on me now, if you know what I mean…
I’d like the guy pretending to be ‘Dan Griffoni’ to put his head in a blast furnace
, if you know what i mean.
i thought Shander was with Julie Dorenbos?
Nothing on Shander jumping off the walt whitman?
That wouldn’t kill Eyton. His massive hog would keep him afloat.
Shander is just an update girl for like the 15th rated morning show in this city. If he clears 25k I’d be impressed.
