If Albert would be ok at competing with Fisher for LT/RT as long as he gets his 9 million per then i'm ok with it.
but if he is going to reluctantly take the deal and then pout about it ... **** it.
If Albert goes to LG then what happens to Schwartz/Asomoah?

Schwartz DOES play tackle. He prefers guard, but I doubt he's going to pass up a starter's job.
What the (potential) Albert contract does is fills that hole at LG once and for all. No more old man Liljas, and no more worrying about rookies who can't hack it.
We could also play him at RT if it's that big of a deal.
Or, the other option is to simply play the best linemen we have. Asamoah has been good, but if Schwartz is an improvement over him and Albert is an improvement over Schwartz, we may have to just let Asamoah go to another team.
In any case, both Schwartz and Asamoah are done with their contracts in 2014. They have one year left. If we can save some money in not having to give people new contracts, that might be where we concentrate our effort.
