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.

Same reeruned shit people were saying about Bowe last year.

This isn't the best they could have done and no, they did NOT get the best player.

dolphins still have no LT and would rather have future picks from them anyway

JoeyChuckles · 04-26-2013, 07:42 PM

Maybe we can get picks from the Dolphins in a draft that has more talent.

I agree. I would rather keep Albert for a year under the tag and then get a future comp pick for him or make Miami pay market price for a LT.

Miami just moved down got 2 4ths then moved back up again. No way any picks being saved for BA trade. They've moved on we should too.

The Jets get it. They will draft and draft a QB until they get one. The Cheaps? Lolz...

Oh, and raising one's three year old to be a Chiefs fan should be construed as child abuse.

I'm not raising my son to be a Chiefs fan. He can like whoever he wants.

Yes, please let us be like the Jets. Good ****.

**** the Jets. You think this is bad Sweet Dick, go watch Jets blunders on youtube.

I have a sickening feeling they are going to trade Albert to Miami for 2014 picks.

I'd rather see Tannehill get killed this year.

That's great with me if it's a 2nd. My guess is conditional. God I hope Ireland's a reerun and its 2014 first round.
