And second of all, even if he is a guard, you take a top ten talent when you can get him at 15. Passing on that talent makes no sense, any way I look at it.
Following silly mantras or rules of thumb is a good way to eff yourself in the b when it leads you to pass on good talent when its there.

Albert become a Top Ten prospect in the offseason. He just flew up charts after combine numbers etc etc. I wasn't sold on it like anybody else was.
I'll repeat it again, if he opens the season at LT, I was wrong. If he opens the season at OG, I'll still dislike the pick. I may just hate it. We'll see.
