[QUOTE="Sky King, post: 731375, member: 7171"] If Yancey can play STs better than Allison and he can ad lib with some effectiveness when the QB scrambles, then I like his chances to usurp Allison on the 53. Yancey seems the much better deep threat of the two already. He has a knack for it going back to college. If Allison is no better on the ST coverage teams than he was on the long KO that was called back against the Eagles, he's definitely at risk of making the roster. One-trick (UDFA) ponies will always be available. Barring injury before the season begins, I would place Yancey ahead of Allison even today and by a significant margin. Plus, if Allison is cut before he serves his one game suspension I have my doubts any team would find him all that attractive as a FA pick-up compared to guys that are already familiar with their respective teams' systems - having been in their camps from OTAs through preseason. Besides there are likely to be several better WRs than Allison that will turn-up on the waiver wire on cut-down day. Obviously, I'm not as enthralled with Allison as either a short or long-term prospect as some other posters seem to be. He's not special. [/QUOTE]
