Dolphins working on a trade for offensive tackle Branden Albert

[ShowtimeSBMVP]

Branden Albert trade won’t happen unless he lowers his price

The much-discussed potential trade of Branden Albert from the Chiefs to the Dolphins doesn’t appear likely at the price Albert is currently seeking.

Although the Chiefs and Dolphins can probably agree on compensation — the Dolphins sending a second-round pick to Kansas City — the hangup is that Albert wants the kind of money that the Dolphins aren’t willing to spend. Specifically, according to Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports, Albert wants between $8 million and $9 million a year on a long-term deal.

In other words, Albert is looking for the same kind of contract that left tackle Jake Long got from the Rams — the very contract the Dolphins wouldn’t give Long, which is why he left Miami for St. Louis.

If the Dolphins weren’t willing to pay Long that kind of money, it’s hard to see why they’d be willing to give up a second-round draft pick for the privilege of paying Albert that kind of money. So the Dolphins may need to look elsewhere for a left tackle. And Albert may have to settle for playing this season for the Chiefs, making $9.8 million, and hitting free agency next year.

Oh, they're better prospects than the QB's in this class.


But if we are holding the QB's there, the LT's need go there too.

And teams have recently won Super Bowls with subpar QBs, as Dilfer and Brad Johnson demonstrate. Rex Grossman got his team to the Super Bowl, for crying out loud.

still peddling that bullshit...good god...no wonder you loved a failure like cassel

Ya with HOF defenses. Do you see a HOF defense in KC? And Grossman couldn't do shit in the Super Bowl.

Perfect scenario.

Albert for #42 and a 3rd.
Trade down to #5. Take Jordan.

I don't agree with that...at all. People have gone full reerun evaluating QB's this year because of the previous year.

Dilferdo was 13 years ago, Brad Johnson was 10 years ago and Grossman was 7 years ago. ****.

There will be some QB's come out of this class, definitely. But the LT's are better LT's as prospects than the QB's as prospects.

They don't have the holes the Qb's have.

I'd love to come out of this thing with Fisher, Minter and one of the top 4 Qb's.

Are we just going to deliberately define 'recently' as the day before yesterday, or something? Brad Johnson has as many Super Bowl wins as Peyton Manning.
