I don't think he'll be traded. There's still serviceable LT's on the market. A team would have to give up picks when they a just sign one of the others.

Says he is in limbo and won't show up for work until he gets an answer about his future. He just wants to know if he'll be traded or if he'll be a Chief. Stated several times he wants to stay a Chief. Doesn't want to move to right tackle but stated he may not have a choice if that's their decision. Asked about last season what happened and was Cassel the problem. He immediately without hesitation said NO. It was all the team not executing.

Says Reid and Dorsey are not communicating their plans to him and wants an answer.

Says he's working out.

I saw the latter part. I thought he held himself well on camera.

This is NFL Network's version of "Good A.M America" for the novice mind. I agree they suck.

Albert not adapting well to the fact this is a business and becomes 'more of a business' when the attitude continues to sour. He is as good as gone in D/R's mind IF they can find a trading partner 'but' if they cannot; to RT he goes and next year R/D say 'se la ve':thumb:

Actually makes sense for a team desperate for a quality LT to trade a 2nd for him. Use the Dolphins for example... Would you draft Lane Johnson with a 1st or get Albert for a 2nd? If you have the $$$, then your prepared to make this deal.

And there's the problem in D/R's mind because apparently they don't think he is a stellar LT of pass blocking for how much Reid wants to throw thus they throw out the idea of being a RT knowing he won't like this and now is trade bait to get their supposed 2nd picks back.

Huh?

Albert in a similar situation as Roger Saffold, the Rams LT last year. They signed Jake Long to play LT, moving Saffold to RT. Jeff Fisher said recently that he's tried to call Saffold, but he won't return anyone's call.

When you feel like you've earned the right to play LT with quality performance, getting "demoted" to RT is a tough pill to swallow. We'd feel the same way if something similar happened in our own lives'.

I don't think I'd have a problem with it for $9mil, personally.

Demotion is demotion. These guys have pride.


And yes, I'd be willing to subdue pride for $9M.
