The Jets specifically selected Allen in the fourth round of the 2024 draft with the goal of turning him into a power and short-yardage specialist, including at the goal line. It’s not clear what the impetus for that decision was – Breece Hall scored touchdowns at an absolutely greedy rate at Iowa State and never played in a Jets offense enough to prove anything changed as a goal-line runner – but the Jets selected Allen and immediately slotted him into that role. Allen is naturally polished as a passing-down back, both in terms of blitz pickup and pass-catching ability, but as an overall threat from scrimmage he may lack the speed necessary to gain meaningful use. Allen is arguably one of the slowest running backs on any NFL roster, if not the slowest, and Allen lost momentum to fellow fifth-round 2024 pick Isaiah Davis as the season wore on. New coach Aaron Glenn wants to build a dominant, run-heavy Jets offense and he’s holding an open audition between Hall, Allen and Davis for every possible job, but there’s little objective reason to think Allen will win the open competition against Davis, any more than Hall. If Allen can retain the goal-line specialist role, he could offer conventional fantasy utility, though, especially if the Jets’ offense improves in 2025.
Allen’s prospect profile out of Wisconsin is incomplete after he declined to run the 40-yard dash before the 2024 Draft, but overall he was a productive player in college and could be useful in the NFL as well. At 6-1, 235, the fourth-round pick relies on size and strength rather than speed or agility, and with the Badgers he racked up 1,268 rushing yards as a 17-year-old true freshman. Allen’s age could be a short-term detriment — he doesn’t turn 21 until January — but fellow Jets running backs Israel Abanikanda and Isaiah Davis are both unproven in their own right. One of the three is expected to emerge as a backup to Breece Hall, who is considered one of the more frequently used lead backs in the league.
