Folks on the Planet get bent out of shape saying, "OMG we drafted a RT 1.1!" No, we drafted a bookend to protect the QB--the QB that Reid and Dorsey believe is a franchise caliber QB whether anyone else agrees with them or not.

I'd love to keep Albert, and I really believe that Reid and Dorsey would as well. They keep saying they love him as a player, and that is a reason why they didn't let him go to Miami for peanuts. Shrewd move on their part, if you ask me.

Let Fisher play RT. Keep Albert, who everyone seems to think is close to being an elite LT. We would have an elite line whether it is to protect the QB or to maul defenses in the running game.
Or we can't get a deal done, in which case we play Albert for a year, let him walk, then draft Taylor Lewan.

Because the offensive line > QB as we all know.
