What he's worth in trade, and worth to us don't necessarily match. Trade value may be a 2, but for that I'm keeping him around.

The only way another team can acquire him for less than 2 firsts, is to agree with us on a trade. They can offer what they want, we aren't forced to say yes.

I can't remember the last team who was active in free agency like this who did all that well during the season. It takes time for these guys to play together. By saving cap space what are we really doing? Saving it so we can go out and get another ****ing free agent?

We've got enough of those. Time to try to make some of them work out okay. Lay low and put together some decent drafts for the first time in 4 years.

I Blame Pioli for this 4 years of awful drafts. Andy needs to fill holes.

Why do people continue to bang away at the "One sack" mantra?

They guy didn't start every game last year.

It's better than drafting a LT with a high first round pick, only to let Albert walk this year or next.

They'd be the first HC/GM combo I know of that are given an in-his-prime LT who allowed one sack all goddamned year and said, "...naaah don't really want him."

If the complaint about Albert is he isn't a roadgrader, it's not like run blocking is his forte or anything. Albert's a damn good LT in protection, which is exactly what they're planning on using him to do.

This went out the door the minute Albert signed the tender.

He played in 13 games.

Even if you don't care about that, his two-year run of excellence, and the fact that he's just entering his prime, is more than enough to say he's worth more than a second round pick.

I want both 2s that's fair value for a franchise LT in his prime

Albert was a damn good LT last season playing for two shitass QBs that didn't do him any favors. The "one sack" mantra is just an easier thing to cite than going down the list of Albert's successes every time you want to talk about how good he is.

Not gonna be a dick here but the Chiefs did run a lot last year.

Do you wonder if his back is effed up like is rumored?

So then the only way he can be acquired is to trade for him. We don't have to sell at sub Wal-Mart prices.

So he allowed more than one sack last year?

And by the way, even extrapolated over 16 games he still only allows 1.33 sacks last year.

You are being a dick, because on a per-snap basis, Albert was among the league leaders in least pressure allowed.

I'm sure it is. If I ran the Chiefs I'd guarantee $10,000,000 to him without checking that out. For sure!

We also had shit QB play so 1 sack is still good IMO
