If SS is the best guy on the board with our next 3rd do we draft him? It'd be ****ing stupid and you know why... |

In fact I'd do it more than once... |

Chase Daniel will flourish (because Alex Smith was forced to retire from all the concussions he received from shitty line play in 2013). |

And I love me some Dion Jordan, but taking him means getting rid of Tamba in the near future, so isn't that the same damn thing we're doing now? |

Dion Jordan doesn't mean that you have to get rid of Tamba in the near future. It gives you another playmaker that you can shift around in different packages. It would be the same thing that we're doing now if we traded Hali before the draft so we had a spot for Jordan. |

if we can talk detroit out of a 2nd to move to #5, do it. if we can talk arizona out of a 2nd to move to #7, do it. i especially like each of those spots, as #5 we might be in position for dion jordan to fall right in your lap, or #7 puts you right in front of 2 division rivals looking to one up each other, so we can move down again. |

Step 1: Acquire another team's backup QB to be your new starter. Point to his potential and ability to be a leader and keep the team in games. Ignore his inability to WIN games. Step 2: With a high 1st-round pick, insist there is no QB worthy of that high pick and that it is best to wait until later in the draft and get a similar QB at better value. - 2A: After all worthwhile QBs go off the board between 1st and 2nd round picks, again point to value and draft BPA. - 2B: Continue 2A until drafting a Ricky Stanzi/Pat Barnes in Round 5 or later Step 3: Say you will wait until next year to draft a QB in the 1st and develop a franchise guy. Step 4: Slog to somewhere between 7-10 wins and talk up how "competitive" your season was and how "close" the team is. Step 5: When next year comes, watch in feigned dismay as all the "good" QBs go off the board before your pick. Sigh, sell "BPA available" and draft for that, saying "We're too close to winning something big to reach on a QB at this pick. Other needs must be addressed. We'll get a similar QB later at a better value." - Step 5a: Again watch in dismay as no similar QBs are available by the next pick. Again draft BPA. - Step 5B: Rinse and repeat 5A until eventually arriving at 2B. Step 6: Talk up previously acquired backup QB, now-starter and how much talent you've added in the draft around him. Reference "weapons" and "chunks." Step 7: Repeat Steps 5-6 for 2-3 more years, then reset at Step 1. |

Hopefully we take Dion Jordan. We're gonna need more defense, especially with Alex Smith. That's his binky. It sucks though because LT will be a must with Albert being one. I AM IN A PICKLE!

God, they must have to trade away starters all the time. Seriously, what's the fascination with shipping off a player as soon as you draft his replacement? What if the replacement sucks ass? |

And if the unexpected happens and 1.1 is a huge bust we still could pay Albert... |

Why in the world should the contract be a concern for fans or cause organizations to shy away from the deal? Injury concerns are the only legit worry, and this is true for any player. |

If Miami gets Albert to agree to a lower contract number, then drafting a tackle at 1.1 becomes even stupider on our part. We'll have traded away an affordable known quantity in order to overdraft a middling tackle prospect (whichever one it is).

You never, ever, ever in a million years spend 1.1 on a right tackle. Period. You can find a damn good right tackle in the fifth ****ing round. And besides, we'll be fine with Schwartz at RT. |

Ironically, if ***** had implemented SackofShit's draft suggestions from '10-present, that fat NE piece of shit would still be the highest-paid GM in football, and his daily activities could consist of browsing the draft forum and refreshing the girly thread.

You wouldn't care if he was paid that much and played like he did last year. 0 ****s given on your part if it came to pass. The only time fans ever care about how much a player is paid is when that player sucks. |

No. 42 vs. 54 RT @NFL_ATL: From @wyche89: Chiefs GM Dorsey says they expect Albert talks to continue. Still working on trade compensation Also said when Steve Wyche talked to Dorsey and Reid just a few minutes ago they pointed out they did like the tenacity and athleticism of Fisher. Steve Wyche @wyche89 1m Chiefs GM Dorsey: trade compensation is the holdup in Albert trade w/Miami. Talks will continue into the night. Time is an issue |

Tony Gonzalez was a greedy bitch. Apparently so was Priest Holmes. Dwayne Bowe, too. We didn't know WHAT he wanted, yet it was speculated and people just assumed that Bowe wanted Megatron money. HE was the selfish one, and not Pioli the ****ing dick-brained cheapskate. Same as it's always been. |

From Mike Mayock.
“Branden Albert’s a good, solid NFL left tackle. From my perspective, he’s asking for an awful lot of money for a long term deal. The NFL’s all about kind of churning veterans, and trying to bring rookies in who can do the same thing for less money. When I talk about Joeckel, Fisher and Johnson, I’m talking about three tackels I think can be Joe Thomas type players in one draft. So whichever one (the Chiefs) take, I think he’s going to be a premier left tackle at an All-Pro level. So I think he’s going to be a better football player than Branden Albert.” Read more here: http://mellinger.kansascity.com/entr...#storylink=cpy Yeah sure sounds like these OT's are terrible prospects. LMAO |
Wow Mayock.....3 Joe Thomas LTs in 1 draft?
|
Maybe Mayock can point out to me which DE is going to be most like Robert Ayers.

Chiefs not pressed to trade Albert. Said they'd be fine with him on team. Albert doesn't want to move to RT. No idea if he'd be moved. |

Dorsey loves the player RT @wyche89: Chiefs not pressed to trade Albert. Said they'd be fine with him. Albert doesn't want to move to RT |
Quote:
So now we're talking five Joe Thomas's in 2 years, eh? Or perhaps this is the same breathless hyperventilating we get every year over ordinary prospects... I'm going to say that's quite a bit more likely than the NFL suddenly having 10 HOF caliber LTs bouncing around. |
Quote:
They're not special. Good, but unspectacular. If all Reid/Dorsey cares about is not getting a pick wrong, then we may as well pass the hat around right now for some airplane banner money. |

As the salary cap increases due to the new tv deals and teams (like us in particular) overpay vets to reach the floor, Albert's deal will be a bargain in retrospect. And we're talking about a contract in the 30s. This is not a 'big' contract in any true essence of the word.

We can hold Albert and watch MIA panic when we take an OT, JAX takes an OT and Johnson goes top 5. Then Ireland panics and gives up 12...I'm dreaming but that'd be funny.
