Branden Albert, Miami Dolphins' new offensive line start strong
Quote:
By his standards, this wasn't good enough. His new team was trailing the New England Patriots. His new offense was making too many mistakes. And most importantly, in his mind, the offensive line wasn't doing its job of keeping Ryan Tannehill clean.

So Miami Dolphins left tackle Branden Albert sought out the quarterback during the second quarter of Sunday's contest to deliver the most unnecessary apology Tannehill has likely ever heard.

"I'm sorry, man," Albert told him. "We need to keep you cleaner. We need to do a better job."

After the game, as Tannehill changed out of a uniform that could forgo the typical bleaching, the signal-caller could only shake his head and smile.

"Are you kidding?" Tannehill said, recalling the apology. "That was like a day off.".....



...In 2013, Miami set a franchise record with 58 sacks allowed. Yet Sunday, with center Mike Pouncey sidelined while he recovers from hip surgery and five new starters (only one of whom -- Albert -- has any major NFL accolades to his name) on the field, the unit did not give up a single sack until the fourth quarter.

The group -- which includes free-agent signees Albert, Daryn Colledge, Samson Satele and Shelley Smith, plus first-round draft pick Ja'Wuan James -- wasn't merely impressive because of the previous season's sorrows. It was just ... impressive. There's no need to qualify or compare what it accomplished.

Not only did Tannehill stand mostly upright (he really didn't see legitimate pressure until the fourth play of the fourth series -- when he still managed to make three reads), but the Dolphins' running backs were motoring through respectable holes. The blocking helped Knowshon Moreno (who, of course, deserves credit of his own) to 134 yards on 24 carries in his own Miami debut, an average of 5.6 yards per attempt. Lamar Miller, meanwhile, nearly matched Moreno's pace, chipping in 59 yards on 11 tries, or 5.4 yards per attempt.

I heard that Fisher apologized to Smith in the first, second, third, and fourth quarters.

Everyone who defended taking Fisher 1.1 last year by saying he was only going to be a RT for one year, that they'd dump Albert and upgrade while saving money.

Everyone who was trying to gloss over the copious losses of personnel sustained this offseason.

We already HAD the lineman. Why draft his position again?

Agreed. One of the few draft picks we actually nail and we cut him loose when he still has at least 3 or 4 good seasons in him.

It's so funny that you keep bringing up this point.

There's a big difference between saying "Not every player on the OL needs to be a first-round pick" and saying "Hey, this LT we spent a first-round pick on and developed into an above-average LT? We should keep, especially since he wants reasonable money."

Should be a really simple concept, shouldn't it?

Yes. A lot of people understood than he had to go since we drafted Eric Fisher 1.1 as a LT. But who WANTED him gone?

Saccoppoo doesn't count. He's the same guy that wants to draft guards every single year in the first round and thought the offensive player of the year last year was a guard.

I'm going through the threads now. No one was happy he was leaving or saying Fisher was better. It was an understanding that Fisher was just going to have to start since he was drafted so high.

So glad we passed on signing Daryn Colledge.

I'm fine with the Albert departure actually, he was asking for way too much. Would have gone after Veldheer or Monroe though. They each signed for about $10 mil less than Albert did.

Brandon Albert was not asking for "reasonable money".

Dolphins looked good Sunday. Brady is only 6-7 all time there or something but it would be much more exciting to be a Dolphins fan right now than a Chiefs.
