Maybe the A-11 Football League will step in and give Albert the contract of his dreams, similar to what the USFL did upon their startup. After all, who wouldn't want to be a Stagg or a General. |

Albert
Last year, we tagged Albert and tried to trade him. He had injury concerns and etc. We were offered a third if I remember correctly.
Why wouldn't we use the same strategy? Albert had a solid year and has less concerns than last year. The price tag is higher at $11.5 MM, but his value should be higher as well bc he has another solid year of experience. Also remember that Albert has not cashed in on a big signing bonus. He WANTS a long term deal and doesn't want to play on another one year deal. He may be more willing to make a long term deal with another team this year if we can work out a trade. We should franchise Albert and trade him for a third round pick. |

Fins offered a third. We either wanted a 2nd or Albert wouldn't agree to the contract that fins offered.

We don't have to pay him if we trade him.

And we don't owe anything to Albert. He was paid top 5 LT money. If we can get another draft pick out of Albert, we trade him.

So those were terms of OT Jason Peters' extension. Full deal, per Vincent Taylor, is for 5 years, $51.3 million, $19.55 million guaranteed.

Quite frankly I think Albert is overrated for the $$ he will want. Yes he is decent but he ain't great. Let him go and let's keep building for the future.

Odds are if we let him walk we'll get about as much in a comp pick as we would by trading him.
We have no leverage in a trade...

Exactly. KC can do better things with the $$$ it would take to keep him. I appreciate what he's done for the Chiefs, but the economics of the situation are what they are. I wish him well, but its time to move on without him.
