you can get away with that shit in college, where the coach owns your ass...in the pros the players have leverage, and they always have a contract expiring

can anyone explain to me why you think Albert will accept a demotion for the rest of his career?

Because none of these True Tards use logic.

Is that like when Rod Gardner was impressive his rookie year he deserved a bigger contract when his original one ran out?

Only happens IF they are convinced he is better suited at LG and isn't as good as WE at CP think he is AND they can sell him on the idea... it is possible just not probable

Because their blind, unadulterated love for the Chiefs prevents them from understanding that some people might not think their lives are complete by having an affiliation with the franchise.

what had gardner done the rest of the contract? did they move him to TE in his 2nd year?

doesn't answer my question

why would he accept a career long demotion?

he knows damn well that he's good enough to be a LT....he's already proved it....

but he's just going to say screw it and be a RT or guard because some shitty franchise asks him to?

I agree, but the way it's looking is we either overpay for a RT or we overpay for a ILB. Which is better/worse?

right up until his contract was up.

Are those the only 2 players in this draft?

the ilb, of course

if you pick monroe, Albert is gone...that pick is wasted...


picking monroe is NOT an option

of course he would, but the point is that he is gonzo....

he's not going to be guard for the Chiefs just because fans thinks it is neato

If he plays best at OG you play him at OG. If you can get a better LT, especially a year with bad value you get the better LT. You don't pass on Willie Roaf because you have Steve Hutchinson lined up at LT and hes doing fine.

RustShack 04-15-2009 07:54 PM

Players come and go, its the NFL and its a business. I'll build a roster with guys willing to take minor pay cuts to make the team better instead of selfish guys wanting every penny they can get.
