go read my earlier post, would YOU do it?

THAT is the assumption around here...

...if he can be shown otherwise, than I can see him accepting a ProBowl guard's contract.

The party line around here is that he is a saviour at LT (which may be true) but if he knows better and the coaches know better... then it isn't such a stretch.

Again... I don't believe it... but you can't dismiss it out of hand as if you know better. No one does...

do you think in his mind he's not capable of being a GREAT LT?

good grief...this pointless


a LT is selfish for wanting to be a LT?


people are in some kind of deep ****ing denial

"if LT's won't play guard for the Chiefs, they're selfish...."

I know you're playing devil's advocate, but there are enough people on this site that know enough about football that if Albert's "solid" season were due to smoke and mirrors, we'd know all about it.

uh, yes we do

he's a LT

is you ask him what he is, he is not going to say, "i'm a guard playing LT but I hope to be a guard again some day"....

this literal fantasy on this thread...he'll be a LT for the Chiefs or he'll be a LT for someone else and still no one can tell me why in the hell he would do otherwise?

That is the point, we have no idea... and we have no idea what our new coaches think... Or the rest of the league, etc etc...

Just saying that I am not gonna jump on someone for throwing a legitimate possibility out there (not one I am advocating mind you, but it is POSSIBLE)

If our new coaches dump Albert in favor of someone else, it's because they're hopelessly attached to their "own" guys (ie. Cassel) or they just have to get rid of Herm's GOOD picks any way they can.

Dumb.

You're not making the team better by moving Albert.

Albert is better than every LT in this draft.

if in HIS mind he's not capable we shouldnt have picked him AT ALL, you have to KNOW you are the man IMO

Look the only way picking Monroe remotely makes sense is if the team has all of these things lined up..

They are committed to keeping both of them and paying 2 OT's alot of money down the line, that's the only way it works. If they think there's not gonna be a cap then it doesn't become as much of an issue...

ROFL

OK homer.

I would take a small pay cut if it helped me reach the Super Bowl. Not every player wants to break the bank, especially if they are team players like Albert.

Even if you disagree with that, every team had last year had Albert on their boards as a OT.

If the Chiefs draft Monroe they have to be committed to paying 2 Tackles a ton of money or Albert won't be here when his 1st contract is up.
