If the Bears were in position to draft Patrick Willis and they said "Well, you know, Urlacher played safety in college so we could move him out there." Would you support it?
The fact that he played guard in college means nothing. Maybe Monroe just wasn't versatile enough to play RT or inside, and Albert could play LG, so they put him there.
Before he was a tackle, he was considered a 2nd-3rd round prospect.
We could pick up a guy who could play guard or RT just as well as Albert in the 2nd or 3rd round and fill a position with a true impact player in the first.
