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

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

No, it's not. We drafted him to play OT when he should have played guard. Each time Albert got hurt, he took longer to come back than should. He was always looking for time off and was never worth where he was drafted. The way his career ended fit him perfectly. He went out crying about being traded and looking for more money even though he wasn't worth the cash he was already getting. Albert might have been a wonderful person, never met the guy, but he was the classic underachiever because he lacked heart.

Getting traded to Jacksonville is a good reason to quit.

The biggest **** up was not taking offers to trade down for less than value. He refused to take less than "standard" value and it was clearly a weak draft.

Shock the system. Pick up a 2 and 5 and leave the round. With that we could have taken THE BEST HB IN THE LEAGUE that I was begging us to take (and we could have had we not traded our pick away) that year. Had we taken Bell (who I was pimping hard that draft) he would have been an unbelievable combo with Charles...

He took too long to come back from injuries? Do you know his doctors, or are you one? How do you know he took too long? Because he took longer than a standard rehab schedule? |

In this case tough guy JakeF is saying Albert's injuries weren't real and he should have just played on, but he was a pussy! Good to know. Thanks, JakeF! ****ing moron. |

Solid career. One of Carl's best picks in the latter half of his tenure.

Quick temper, but great guy. He could have been so much more given the chance to play inside...
