With Reid dealing with a lot of injured veteran O-linemen these past 2 yrs at Philly I can see him saying "F It" I'm not dealing with that crap anymore let's just get a new one in the draft.

I have that feeling as well. I think Joeckel is going to be one of those LT's that is going to be solid for many years more on the level of Albert but I have a feeling Fisher and Johnson have the upside to be great LT's with their frames and athletic ability. Joeckel is just more of a polished product with less upside. He will continue to get better as he gets stronger but again he doesn't have the freakish upside as the other two. So hope for a trade down!

As someone just mentioned, Reid has been fighting the injury bug at LT in Philly the last couple of years... probably doesn't want to deal with it in KC as well. You know it has to be one of the pro/cons in discussions.

If he walks then we better get Fisher. Joker is not ready in strength catagory.

Technically neither are Fisher or Johnson. The LT's at the top of this draft aren't like Fluker who is physically imposing already. The top three still need to develop frame wise but have other pluses on their side to make a impact immediately.

They need both of these guys back. Didn't Albert at one point say he wasn't looking to break the bank in KC, but just wanted to stay? I don't get it....

Didn't he also say he is healthy? I'd much rather keep Albert and not draft next LT this year with our first. Geno Smith is my #1 option, I know that's not going happen trade back if they can and draft CB.

They are using Joekoff as leverage against Albert.

They were discussing the LT market durning the combine on the NFLNetwork. One... or more... of the pundits that were discussing it said that the money the FA LT's are asking for may not be there due to supply and demand. Supply is high with the amount of LT's available in free agency and early in the draft.
If we choose to let Albert test the FA market, I wouldn't panic right away. He may find the money isn't out there and wind up back in KC... just for less money than he was hoping for. Nervous... yes. But panic... no. |

Are we writing off Stephenson at this point? I thought he was supposed to be groomed for the next LT position? I know he didn't play like a HOF LT last year, but was it enough to give up on him completely?
