Maybe they want to see how his back checks out. But there is no denying that franchising a player you don't like at all is a bad/risky move.

Racist

Yes because a QB makes the LT better not theTho LT making the qb better.

Example. Would Thomas make Cassell better or would Geno make Albert beter.

Hard to say. Neither of them has a long-term contract.

A lot of what's gone on with Albert (eg trade rumors) could just be negotiating via the media.

Reid hasnt said anything about Albert so who knows what is going on.

Oh I think they're trying to or tried to trade Albert. But I also think they like him quit a bit. If they didnt they wouldn't have tried to trade him or would have taken whatever trade offer they'd have got to get rid of that salary

Didn't he talk about him during the league meetings? I think I remember some commentary about how he didn't play guys out of position and that he thought albert was a championship-caliber LT.

I'm going to let the actions of April 25th dissolve this Geno issue.

For as many people on the board who rip people for rationalizing Alex Smith, there are some damn good rationalizers for a QB that's not looked upon very well in a weak class.

That's all I've got to say about that.

Ironic statement, since the person that seems to be spending the most time talking about Geno is you.

So if the unimaginable happen and they pick him, you'll be pissed?

He said Albert was a Pro bowl caliber LT and Dorsey said Albert is the Future LT of this team for years to come.

We don't know that...in fact, they have said many times that they want Albert here long term.

At first, there was a rumor stating they wanted a 2 for him...then, it changed to a 2 and another pick...then, it was us wanting 2 second rounders for him.

It's ENTIRELY possible that they want keep Albert, but want to sign him after the draft so they can use trade conversations to gauge interest in an OT for draft value reasons.

Andy Reid brought up the McNabb situation as a rebuttal for us not targeting Geno...John Dorsey brought up the Aaron Rodgers situation...then, they raved about how they love his pro day tape and decide to bring him to KC for 2 days.

I still think Joeckel is gonna be the pick, but I also don't think Geno is out of the conversation yet.

I agree. I was just using Thomas as a Joeckel substitute and Bradford as a Geno sub. Since both of them can respectfully be considered the "ceiling" for arguments sake on each prospect, which player would benefit this team more? A top LT(Thomas/Joeckel/Fisher) or a good QB(Bradford/Geno)?

I think fisher is the pick if its a LT. Joeckel doesn fit what they seem to be looking for.


Again, I'd rather them target a pass rusher of some kind, or star. I think Star might be the best football player in the whole draft

QB without a doubt. Qbs have a impact on the team. A LT not so much.
