why deal with the disruption when you can just let the rookie get his feet wet at RT without the drama.
Albert plays a full year without getting hurt then his trade value could actually be higher next year.
The rookie learns the nfl at a little bit easier position and then slides over to left tackle.
it's not difficult unless you put this imaginary 'don't take a RT at 1.1' bullshit into the issue.

The thing is, recent tackles who were drafted to play LT and switched to RT never really developed into LTs.
Reiff(who might move to guard
)
Bulaga
Jon Martin (probably early to say, the fact they want Albert is meaningful IMO)
Carimi(also moved to guard)
Oher
Sherrod
Tyron Smith is the most recent example of a first round T who started out on the right side that bucks this trend. Solder could fit as well.
IMO, Fisher needs to play LT right out of the gates.
