Dolphins cutting left tackle Branden Albert
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...randen-albert/
The pool of available left tackles continues to fill, with the Dolphins the latest to throw a guy out of theirs. According to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network, the Dolphins will be cutting veteran left tackle Branden Albert. That clears the way for 2016 first-rounder Laremy Tunsil to take over there, after they plugged him into various roles last year, settling at left guard. The 32-year-old Albert struggled with injuries as a Dolphin, though the investment they made in Tunsil made this seem inevitable from the moment the talented blocker fell into their laps because of a marijuana-smoking gas mask video just before the draft began. Albert may no longer be athletic enough to handle the position the way he once did, but he’ll still likely get plenty of looks on the market. |

That draft was abysmal at the top. Everyone flamed on the Chiefs for taking the small school prospect.

Hell, the idea that we've had Reid for 4 seasons now is kinda crazy to me. That hire still seems like it was yesterday. I suspect this was the end of his 'honeymoon' period though. Another first round flameout or worse next year and I'll start to say "I can't believe we've had him for fiiiiive ****ing yeeears...." Being a sports fan makes you old in a hurry; you spend so much time pining for next year that you kinda forget that you just got a year older in the meantime.

I want to know what milkman thinks about this. He was the original Brandon Albert scout.

Read today that the Jags are planning a trade for him. Some bum called Julius Thomas...

Citing league sources, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports the Dolphins are working to finalize a trade sending Branden Albert to the Jaguars in exchange for Julius Thomas.
The Miami Herald reported this late in the week, but the Sun-Sentinel got credit for the story on multiple media outlets today. The Sun-Sentinel hasn't (accurately) broken an NFL story in years. Either way, it's clear the Albert-for-Thomas deal has legs and at this point seems inevitable. Officially, no deal can be consummated until the start of the new league year on March 9. |

Well, that was a hurtful statement about Sun-Sentinel.

Well, I won't dig too much at that. I'm just pointing out that there weren't many people upset about Branden albert leaving. More people upset about Eric fisher being picked. But yes, they ended up all being garbage.
