So we grab Albert at 15, and if he is strictly a guard I think the pick still has a lot of value. Now I believe he will be a great LT. Bringing him in at LT next to Brian Waters gives us a huge left side of the line to pass protect and to carve out holes for LJ. And don't forget that means we upgraded at RT by moving McIntosh over there.
We swapped 3rd round pick (Moved down 10 spots) and gave them a 5th.
I'd rather have Albert over William, Clady, Otah and the rest of the bunch.

Exactly the point I was going to make. Why is Shaun Alexander not a Seahawk anymore? Because they let Hutchinson get away. It was a colossal **** up by the Hawks. Albert is a no lose situation IMO. He either works out as a solid LT, or probably becomes the best G in the game in the next 5 years. Basically, we got heads on a 2 headed quarter. WPI is free to use that last line and claim it as their own.
