Chiefs Dolphins working on a trade for offensive tackle Branden Albert - Page 96

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.

Wish could have nabbed both 2nd rounders.

Lol this is the same guy who said there was a 95% chance Reid would be the new head coach of the Cardinals. Espn grabbed the story and they got embarassed.

Worst pick in team history Jokell coming up

He has also been right on a bunch of others stories so far.

We got Alex, defense destroyer, Smith. And you will be pleased 365 days from now.

Dorsey even said he viewed his second round pick as Alex Smith.

There probably was a 95% chance Reid was going to be their HC until Clark literally flew out to Philly to jump ahead.

I think we'll end up being a pretty good team this year, but I'm not a fan letting Albert go only to turn around and draft his replacement. However, it does sound like Albert has possibly been a douche with the contract demands.

I think Reid will have Smith playing well.

Maybe we can find a nice play maker with 2nd rounder. Hopefully a receiver that can also excel at returning kicks.

Either Franks info is wrong or Reid/Dorsey are the stupidest mother ****ers in the nfl

**bevischief** · 04-20-2013, 01:46 PM

It better not be another midget with the 2nd if this goes thru.

Per Tony Pauline

Sources tell me several position coaches for the Kansas City Chiefs prefer tackle Eric Fisher over Luke Joeckel....

I don't think he meant that how you want it to mean.
