Chiefs Dolphins working on a trade for offensive tackle Branden Albert - Page 325

Branden Albert trade won’t happen unless he lowers his price

The much-discussed potential trade of Branden Albert from the Chiefs to the Dolphins doesn’t appear likely at the price Albert is currently seeking.

Although the Chiefs and Dolphins can probably agree on compensation — the Dolphins sending a second-round pick to Kansas City — the hangup is that Albert wants the kind of money that the Dolphins aren’t willing to spend. Specifically, according to Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports, Albert wants between $8 million and $9 million a year on a long-term deal.

In other words, Albert is looking for the same kind of contract that left tackle Jake Long got from the Rams — the very contract the Dolphins wouldn’t give Long, which is why he left Miami for St. Louis.

If the Dolphins weren’t willing to pay Long that kind of money, it’s hard to see why they’d be willing to give up a second-round draft pick for the privilege of paying Albert that kind of money. So the Dolphins may need to look elsewhere for a left tackle. And Albert may have to settle for playing this season for the Chiefs, making $9.8 million, and hitting free agency next year.

sure, we'll take both of their #2's and their #1 to trade up to 1.1.

Green regularly threw more TD's than Flacco with about the same number of interceptions and had a greater yards avg at 8.3. Vermeil didn't believe in defense or we win a SB while he was QB.

Your love of Flacco borders on obsessive.

The Dolphins are willing to give up pick No. 54 for Albert. They can work out a long-term contract with Albert. Adds to the drama.

I would be perfectly fine if we got their 1st, 2nd and 3rd for our 1st. Now is not the time to ask for a ****ing King's ransom.

He's not going to go into the season with some shitdick at LT for Tannehill.

He's got two options: Pay out the ass for a top draft pick or pay out the ass to Albert and give up the necessary compensation to the Chiefs.

At this point it might make more sense for him to go to 1.1 and take Joeckel.

Either way, he's ****ed.

At least one?

**The Franchise** · 04-25-2013, 09:22 AM

I wouldn't even be surprised if we drafted a LT at 1.1......waited until the 2nd round and then told the Dolphins we want a 1st next year for Albert.

**RealSNR** · 04-25-2013, 09:22 AM

Take that #54 and shove it right back up your ass.

That's not a trade, that's an insult. And you're in no position to throw insults around you stupid ****.
