I think it's a given that Hali will be re-structured.

Why do we think he will succeed at G?

He was asked to restructure this year and said no. (according to Athan this morning).

You actually listen to Athan? What the **** is wrong with you?

Sir, I think I've diagnosed your first problem.

How many tackles that switch to guard do you know who have a tough time playing the position?

I don't have any idea.

I'm just not understanding why his current skillset would translate to guard very well.

Because he was an outstanding guard at Virginia.

None?

Gallery was a much better guard, Chris Williams, was a much better guard.

Sure, but that was a ways back. He's never played G in the NFL.

I think his transition to guard, would be much much much easier, than to right tackle......

I really don't want him at RT, at all.

Nor do i. it seems like the damage is done, perhaps they should just move him for whatever they can get, and call it a day. Dont need guys who value themselves more than the team.

And I'm sure he doesn't need pieces of shit franchises who ask him to protect the worst assortment of QBs the NFL has seen in a long time, go through drastic weight gains and losses, and then when a new regime comes in, they ask him to switch positions and after loading up on another shitty QB and drafting his replacement at #1 overall even though he's done nothing but improve and do a pretty good job.

Oh, and to top it off the fans call him not a team player.

Albert has been treated like ****ing shit by this team, and if I were him I'd be the same way. All he's doing is trying to retain some semblance of dignity and status by staying at LT, and the team by tagging him and then failing to send him to somebody else is preventing him from doing so.

If Albert quits on them, the Chiefs are the only ones to blame.
