Joseph got a 7 year, $52 million dollar contract. I'd give Albert a 5 year, $40 million dollar contract to play LG or RT.

Will he do it though?
there is money and there is ego 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?

I think what needs to happen is Dorsey and Reid need to actually negotiate with BA in good faith. Can't help feeling they have a part in the negative tone of all of this as well. Of course maybe they did, but we'll probably never know what has actually taken place between the two sides.

Pay the man !
I don't care what it costs, it's not my money ! We need the best line we can get and keeping Albert makes our line better. |

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. |

It could come out that BA is totally at fault in all of this, but we hardly have all the facts. |

Was there even any negotiations with this one? I know he was offered a deal from Peeholy, but turned it down taking his agents advice. I wasn't aware that there were any real negotiations with the current regime.

Maybe the initial offers were so far apart they didn't negotiate for very long, but i don't see why they wouldn't negotiate at all.
