There is no way they move Albert to RT or draft a RT a 1.1. Just no way.

You dont waste a 1st round pick on a RT, you plug Stephenson at RT and find a player in the 3rd round that can be used as a swing tackle.

Dorsey's interview on kccchiefs about the team addressing its free agents, doesn't give the impression that signing Albert was very important. It seemed like putting the tag on Albert was a placeholder.

You've already got your RT on the roster in Allen or Stevenson. You get a guard in free agency or mid rounds of the draft, you get your LT with the 1.1 pick, and you use the pick you aquire for him on the QBOTF.

We already have a proven LT. We can keep him and assure ourselves of getting our choice of QBs and not waiting until the middle of the first to get the leftovers. It just doesn't make sense to me. If your plan is to have a QB and LT, I see no scenario in which it is better to get a leftover QB and an unproven LT instead of keeping your proven LT and taking your pick of the QBs. Screw value.

We need a legit WR, CB, and ILB, and RT. You don't go and create a hole you don't have to and then fill that hole at 1.1 Instead you sign him so you don't have that hole and use that pick on the best value there. To me (if we don't trade down) that's CB...

But they could draft a future LT at 1.1 and play him at RT for a year. That's not necessarily optimal, but it's far from unprecedented.

We have spent entirely too many picks on the OL in the previous drafts to dip into that well again this year, especially at tackle.
If the Chiefs were to go after a lineman this year, they should look at a center, and do so in the mid-late rounds. Shift Hudson to guard and have the two second year players battle it out for RT and swing tackle depth.

Here is where I think KC stands on Albert (pure speculation).
They weren't close in negotiations (Teicher interview w/ Dorsey). They apparently didn't even negotiate on the final day (Dorsey interview kcchiefs). Getting the punter and Bowe signed was a priority over Albert down the stretch (Dorsey interview kcchiefs). They tag him and hope that the free agent OT class doesn't break the bank. If those guys don't get the money they think they will, or that Albert is asking for, they can come back to Albert and ask him to lower his demands. If Albert doesn't, they try to trade him and/or draft his replacement at 1.1 and move Albert to RT for one year. They are going to protect Alex Smith as much as possible.

Well, our LT is already bitching about not playing RT, before the chiefs have even drafted anyone at all. That is telling as well. Guess we will have to simply disagree on this.
