He better play wherever they tell him too play and keep his mouth shut.

[suzzer99]

Is that what you do if your boss asks to clean the toilets?

[spanky 52]

That's right. And if I don't like it, I'm going to be told to not let the door hit me in the ass.

"Franchise" must mean something other than what I thought it did.

Im prepared to speculate that Albert won't ever get his big deal. Still, 9.3 for one year then whatever mid-market deal he can negotiate next year aint bad for a dude in his late 20s with a dodgy back.

Seriously, good for him.

Cool, looks like you really know your place. Super noble.

Omg...We drafted a RT at 1.1...Dorsey should die, no more ribs for Andy, I need an enema.

I'd prefer we sign Albert to a 4-5 year contract and solidify the line for a bit, but I fully expect someone to lose an OT during training camp or preseason and offer up the right set of picks to KC then...

Trade Albert and try to grab a first or second rounder in 2014. Then sign Tyson Clabo, Winston Justice, or Sean Locklear. Do it whenever the opportunity strikes. I don't see the point of spending $10M on a right tackle just to ease Fisher along.

If Albert is traded, give Lilja another call and let him battle it out with Swartz.

wouldn't be much of a battle. Schwartz is a lot better than Lilja

Hell at this point keep Albert and play them both. The question is do we line them up as bookends or do we talk Albert into playing LG. With Fisher and Albert side by the left side of our line would be awesome. Of course having bookends would be awesome too.

[Rasputin]

I think it will be awkward in practice for them both but if Fisher shuts up and be a good rooky to start at RT Brandon Albert will be happy at least for this year @ LT.

I think Brandon Albert feels like playing LT is a prestiges gig and likes the respect he and money he gets for playing LT. He has done it last five years and doesn't want to feel going backwards in his career playing football.

Which was the bigger insult. The Chiefs not paying him his asking price long term or Miami not giving up #42?

Miami not giving up the #2 had to be a bigger insult in my eyes. Albert views himself as the top LT in the game, and the Phins weren't willing to trade an unproven rookie who's yet to step on an NFL field.

I'd love to sign Albert long term if his agent gets his head out of the clouds. Having both Albert and Fisher on the same line long term will resemble some of the lines we had in the late 90's and early 00's
