Dang. He was our 24th-best 1st-round draft pick ever, in my opinion.

He was constantly banged up. On potential alone he was a B- Will Shields. Would have been an "A-" G (I still argue he should have been played there) but was a B- LT when healthy. I'll admit - I pulled for him after he left...

It's a shame he didn't have a better/longer career...

It was always funny to watch CP try to put this guy in the HOF.

A solid player that didn't live up to potential isn't exactly ball washing...

If every pick made between 15 and 30 had the same kind of career Albert had, you'd be ahead of most GMs. He was a nice player who happened to be here during a time when the team sucked ass so you just never knew what kind of impact he was truly capable of having. That said, it would've been interesting to see if better technique could've lengthened his career some. He was always so erratic with his base that it had to put more strain on his back.

Going to love listening to the local sports talk shows down here in Jacksonville this afternoon on the drive home.

Yeah. I'll eat crow on this one. I wanted us to re-sign him and not draft Fisher.
My bad. |
