While I agree with you that Allen's impact hasn't been as impactful as say that write up on him is making it out to be. Trading him away now for a 2nd rd pk, and even a 1st rd pk, would not be prudent. Far as RK goes I'm not against trading him, but there is another possible and imo plausible scenario involving him as a situational pass rusher. Similar to the role I envision Thomas Davis in as a situational run stuffer.
Concerning Moses, Allen and RK in this regard. Think of the injuries the Skins have suffered the last couple years especially on the DL and OL. We shouldn't be so quick to trade away players who have shown they can play at a high or competent level. One of the HUGE issues that has plagued the Skins from at least Gibbs 2.0 right up to the present as been a lack of depth.
Ding! Ding! Ding!! … a man that understands football and team building.
After 15 some years we finally get a HC that seems as if he actually values depth and what do writers n fans wanna do. Trade away one of our supposed anchors in an area where we've been weak for years.
And while I'm not opposed to trading RK even though he's my fave player. I don't see it as out of the realm of possibility that he can come up with 8 - 10 sacks this season.

your last statement is 100% true . people get the idea that you HAVE to get rid of someone before they slide down and pick an arbitrary number when that should happen . RK has been a very good borderline great LB for us . he has been a model citizen both on and off the field . we arent in any cap trouble . if we keep him , great , if we trade him for a good young piece or pieces , great , but i am not bashing the FO for this either way

as i have said if you can make the trade for a must have players or players then i am all for it . i mentioned hooker before as a guy that could work for usRyan Kerrigan should have been traded away two years ago. Why? Because contrary to all opposing opinions, this team has been in rebuild mode for at least that long. They may tell you different, either of you may disagree, but the proof had been in the results on the field.
In fact @dad using your metric related to how long a rebuild goes, (3-4 years) his greater value would have been in trade because of his age.
Unless there's a one year turnaround coming in a year in which there's likely to be no season, he won't be a factor in 2021. So, you're keeping him for 8-10 sacks this year, the first in a rebuild because of what??
BTW: rebuild generally means a youth movement, trading him, gives you an opportunity to add more youth. Notice no mention of cost or cost savings, that's been done here already.

In a total rebuild, does it really have to be a "must have player or players" instead of a young talented player/players with upside? Age is the biggest factor in this matter and it has been for a couple of years now. The return on Kerrigan has dwindled to a lot less than it was, that's a given, keeping him means (using the stats offered) 8-10 sacks in the first (last for him) year of a clear rebuild.
