Allen can use a club move and dip below blockers or get his hands on them and make a quick move. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He is a good tackler and has decent short-area quickness. Allen isn't in pass coverage a ton on film and I'm interested in seeing him match up against running backs in man coverage on Sunday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Three full days getting back to basics and conditioning at the Nike Football Camp at Loyola Marymount University.
