Albert got a whopping $4M more in guarantees than Fisher.

He did? Last I checked Fisher's contract was fully guaranteed at like 22 million and Albert signed a deal with 20 million guaranteed. Only difference is that Albert has a higher salary and cap hit (by about 3 million per). The Chiefs could have stuck with Albert and let Bowe go and came out ahead.

2/5?

Albert was by far the best lineman this team had and a top LT in the league. The grand master plan for his replacement was a OT from the MAC... what a joke.

We got Roaf for a conditional 3rd round pick. NO wanted to move him because of his $4.25MM that was due to him on a 6 year, 27MM contract. That's peanuts.

That's also over a decade ago with a smaller salary cap...

Since 2002, the salary cap has nearly doubled.

Don't forget that we got to play Albert all of last year, and still basically get a 3rd round pick for him. Miami was offering nothing. We had no clue who would have been available with that pick.

We got a year out of Albert and dick to show for it. Orrrrr we could have stuck Fisher at LT right away and not wasted his first year at RT.

No shit we didn't have a clue. We also didn't have a 2nd round pick. That 3rd could have helped immensely.
