I hope the kid

- is a quick learner

because the defenses he's going to face this season are another level up from what he played against last season. Frankly I'd feel way more comfortable if the front office hadn't fumbled around with the Albert situation and had Fisher at left tackle last year.
That's just wrong, completely wrong.

He doesn't have to throw anything away.

He just has to 'mirror' the hand/foot placements of what he has learned. He has predominantly played left tackle in the past as well.

How did the front office fumble the Albert situation?

Albert wanted to be paid more than they thought he was worth.
Miami wasn't offering anymore than the Chiefs would get for a compensation pick this year.
Having a rookie start at RT is probably better than having him start at LT
we had an incredible young Oline last year that would been even more of any issue had the traded Albert.

you can make a argument that the front office handled it perfectly
