Is it mandatory?

Is it mandatory?

Adam Teicher ‏@adamteicher 52s

Branden Albert did not report on 1st day of chiefs offseason program. Program is technically voluntary

[RyFo18]

It's voluntary. If I was playing on a 1 year tag, I would do as little as possible to minimize the chance of getting injured. Nothing is guaranteed after this year.

[RunKC]

Well he's as good as gone.

[CrazyPhuD]

That's because he's off negotiating with Geno's agent!!!!

[nychief]

Did Geno Smith practice?

If im him, i do the same

I'm not trying to get hurt before possibly getting traded (with an extension)

:rolleyes: Dude is getting paid $10mil to play a sport for one season. If that isn't enough security then I don't know what is. Excuses are getting rediculous.

[B14ckmon]

Albert is gone. Anyone with a brain realizes this. Whomever is going to give up the 2nd rounder is probably just waiting until they get closer to the draft to make a trade.

Lol, he's getting the $10M regardless. Now it's about staying healthy so he can sign a long-term contract somewhere. Cause you know, everyone should risk $30+ million contracts just to be with the team. :thumb:

All of it. Courtesy of the team he is traded to.

[mr. tegu]

I believe all of it. Isn't the tag guaranteed?

Well I meant between agents, taxes, lawyers, etc. Can't blame a guy for wanting to limit the chances of him getting hurt in a voluntary program. To must of us the money is a lot, but we have never been on the cusp of earning 40 million over five years either.

[FRCDFED]

If there is in fact a trade in the works and Albert is being deliberately held out of practice then one would assume he is in the process of working out a new contract with the new team.

@bobfescoe: Reid: knew Albert wasn't going to be here #chiefs

I'm sure it'll get blown out of proportion by the media though...

[BossChief]

Watch em smash our hopes again by waiting to announce that Albert has been traded until Genos visit is over.

Announcement late tomorrow night or early Wednesday.

But but but we still like Geno...

[Chiefspants]

Didn't Bowe miss this last year?

[BossChief]

Then technically I don't really give a shit.

Nothing against you. I'm just not going to get worked up until he starts missing mandatory shit.

If he was planning on missing time, he wouldn't have signed the tender.

I hate to say it but if Reid knows about Albert not being there, it's very possible it's because they intend to trade him and don't want him around the rest of the team.

It's also possible that Reid and Albert have an understanding and Albert will be there in the next couple days.

I guess we shall see.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Draft Geno and an OT in rd 2 if they cant get Albert signed. I see the Albert trade rumor as a smoke screen only because it stalled quickly. All the buzz/smoke is around KC taking OT. Everyone in the NFL thinks were taking an OT. So this is all to get him to lower his price

[MotherfuckerJones]

This is voluntary too.

We got rid of are 2nd round pick.

[MotherfuckerJones]

We got rid of are 2nd round pick.

Im saying if we traded back somehow. But were not trading back. We'll re-sign Albert and take Geno hopefully

[Gravedigger]

Something that may go against us getting Geno, if we've been negotiating with Albert trying to get our lower price, taking Geno would only intensify that. You take a QB with the first 2 picks of your draft essentially, you're going to need someone to protect him, someone really great no matter which Smith is behind center. This scenario would make Albert and his agent go apeshit with possibilities.

[MotherfuckerJones]

But we'd have a roster with a proven vet QB, good backup QB and a future QB in the waiting. That's not bad. We can also move up from our 3s to the 2nd if we wanted.

[dallas_texan]

New member here, and plan on plenty of Non-Troll posts! I am a Texan fan (queu the boos), and am sorry about the loss of Eric Winston. I liked him in Houston and seemed like a class act in KC as well.

Quick question: If you got rid of Winston, and IF you plan to draft Joekel or Fisher, who is your backup RT if you trade Albert? I'm not understanding the trade talk. Smith NEEDS to be protected. He had the best O-line in football (arguably) and (no offense) is going to an inferior one. Seems like trading Albert wouldn't even be a discussion.

And not to stir the pot, but hope you get Tyler Bray or Manuel with a later pick!

Geoff Schwartz is probably going to be the RT.

[ChiefAshhole20]

Theory: I think they want to see what they think of Geno first before they extend/keep Albert. If Geno tears up this private visit and impresses Reid and Co. expect to hear Albert coming to practice, maybe even signs an extension to bring down that cap number so we can have more cap flexibility. But if we aren't impressed with what we see tonight and tomorrow, prepare to hear that Albert was shipped to Mia for a 2nd and some change. It truly is all in Genos hands now. If he really wants to be a Chief, this is his shot. Don't **** this up dude.

[rabblerouser]

Talking about the 49ers QB vs Chiefs QB in 2012 vs 2013?

Doesn't change at all.

In case you missed it, we traded for the 49ers backup. Which means they still have a vastly better QB. And I'd say Harbaugh > Reid as well, so...

[HemiEd]

There is no difference, none at all. Both were tagged, and both are/were free agents on the franchise tag waiting on a long term contract.
Why would signing the tender have any bearing on it?

IIRC Will Shields didn't even report to voluntary work outs on the tag, and he is one of the most respected Chiefs ever.

I completely agree with Albert here. Why go to a voluntary workout if you may be traded?

[HemiEd]

But Bowe hadn't signed his contract yet. Albert has.

You mean the tender? Why does that matter at this point? It is a voluntary workout.

The guy was the best at what he does last year with pure shit at QB and he gets dissed like this? I think he is actually being very cordial.

[BigMeatballDave]

But Bowe hadn't signed his contract yet. Albert has.

It is STILL a voluntary workout. There is talk he may be traded. Why go?

If he misses a mandatory workout, then it's a problem.

Here he tied for 5th. Albert (https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2012/10/17/snapshot-pbe-offensive-tackles/)

If we had a 5th at QB, the team would have been in pretty good shape.

This year or last year? This year the Niners have Boldin as their #2. One could argue that Boldin is better than Crabtree...just not much left on the tires.

You're right though, it comes down to the line. You can have an average QB, RB and WRs and if your line can buy 5 seconds every play you're looking at having a top 10 offense.


Lots of players don't show up for Voluntary Practise when they're franchised...I don't think you have much to worry about.

Vernon Davis is lightyears ahead of Fasano/Moeaki

The place they get us is the line, but I'm not understanding how the skill position talent is inferior.

Bowe, is slightly better than Crabtree, Boldin is better than both, manningham is better than avery, as you said Vernon is better than the chiefs tight ends, and yes, Charles is amazing. Gore/Hunter/Lemichael james, is more dynamic than the chiefs........
