So far Reid has failed us, Sean Smith is in no way spectacular and Miami is thrilled he's gone. Read their reactions. This offseason has been way overrated.

LMAO you have no clue what Reid or Dorsey were thinking going into the draft or what their long term plan to build the franchise is.

I guess the only true silver lining coming out of this.....is we'll no longer be mocked a LT.....until 4 years from now. Next year they'll mock us a 3-4 DE because Jackson will be gone.

What makes Albert hard to trade is that he has to be paid market value on top of giving up a draft pick. I think you take the 54th pick if offered.

I bet we get mocked a RT next year.

I'm not sure what, if anything, they can do today to recover. There's going to be a lot of good players drafted in what's supposed to be Dorsey's wheelhouse (late first to 3rd round) and we'll be sitting there twiddling our thumbs.

You do realize the lack of QB's in this draft actually increases Alex Smith's value not decreases is right?

Are you seriously trying to say all these QB needy teams that didn't draft a QB in round 1 wouldn't have had the same interest we did in Alex Smith?

Have you guys all lost the ability to reason?

People might not like it, but it's not confusing.



The offensive line will be bad ass if Albert stays

not necessarily

signing the tender keeps the team for yanking it late, leaving Albert Hanging
signing the tender allows the team to trade him

I'm not entirely sold on the 'you never draft a RT 1.1' conventional wisdom that's always thrown around. If he's flexible enough to play multiple positions and is a mauler with a mean streak, and your OL is crapola at present he's going to provide value. I understand the whole blindside>frontside issue, but if he's providing solid protection and busting running lanes for Charles open, I'll take it. Besides he's great insurance with his flexibility for possible injuries in season.

Probably Barkley.

Depends on the team. If we trade him to a team that hasn't designated a franchise player.....they can trade for him now and then work on a new contract later.

you can say you don't agree but it's not confusing

best way to make their trade for Alex Smith look like a good one is to give him good protection.

Albert and Fisher help do that

Not really, considering he doesn't want to play. No motivation with a 1 yr contract.
