Then that would likely take joeckel out of the discussion all together, if the intend on playing Albert at lt. If not, based on this offseason, he will play lt elsewhere. He's said he won't play guard

I think the chances of it happening are pretty tiny to begin with. But once they sign Albert, he'll play where they tell him to play. He may not be happy about it, but he's not going to sit out and forfeit his payday. Alternatively, they could play Albert at LT and let Joeckel start his career at G or RT for a year before making the switch.

If they are signing or tagging Albert its likely to play lt, hence we will probably look elsewhere at #1.
At this point I don't know what they look at there though so anyone's guess is as good as mine |

Signing/tagging Albert AND drafting Joeckel would be so incredibly dumb.
A huge ****ing waste of a 1st rd pick. Last edited by BigMeatballDave; 02-23-2013 at 06:29 AM.. |

You'd have to be a buffoon to want the team to not resign Albert only to blow the number one pick by not improving a 2-14 team with it.

Who the **** is Alberts?
Why is our fan base comprised of 2/3 reeruns?

We got franchise LT in Albert no reason in hell to give up on him now.
This rookie scale is kind of back fireing it seems for some vets if teams don't want to pony up and pay big contracts to players who have earned the right to get payed. They can just dump on a guy and get a replacement at a discount in the draft. If that's what they do to Albert then the rookie pay scale system is flawed & defeats the purpose of it all. |

First, what no one even begins note, is that last season was only Albert's 4th season in his playing career at the. LT position.
He had to learn on the job essentially, and has just started to touch his potential. He still has more upside, and hasn't even come close to reaching his cceiling, and he is already a top LT. If you want to argue that Joekel. Has more potential, I would disagree with argument. Second, to patteau's idea, it simply is not a sound financial decision. Forget the fact that you'd be paying LT money to guard. With your plan, with the rookie slotting, you would be committing 15 to 16 mil a year to just 2 line positions. Not a sound Llotment of.

But, Joeckel is a better pass blocker than Albert and will always be better at this than Albert. He is quick/agressive in adjusting and keeping pass rushers in front of him, which requires quick feet and strong upper body -- Brandon Albert just does not have this, he's more or less a guy that will buy you a few moments pass protection and then he loses his guy to a move of some sort, but I think he's good enough for a quick passing scheme like Reid's WCO.
