I don't see Albert coming our way as well. I know Brown has his issues with injuries, but he did play well last season when he was healthy.

I don't think we can even afford this guy . . . . he's in his contract year just like JIMMY GRAHAM and he's a hellova left tackle . . .. I would love to see him in BLACK AND GOLD but i don't think it can happen . . ..

I would love to have Albert be the LT next season - he was the one I targeted from the beginning of the offseason to replace Bushrod with - but the financial aspect makes such a trade very doubtful.

Although, Harper and Ivory would combine for about $9M cap hit...

They released their starting LT, and tagged his back up. Even if they draft a LT, this guy is not going anywhere. They need insurance.

Harper the Albatross.....aaahhhhh!

We can't do it. Well maybe we can but I think it handcuffs us too much and with him on a 1 year tender it is insane for us to take him without a longer term deal in place.

I think we don't move on the position of LT until we see how the draft plays out. If we lose out on Alberts before hand so be it. There are lots of plan B's available.

Depends on how a new contract is written that's all. it would not be easy but i think they could work something out.

Albert wants Left Tackle money and he is not worth it...

We don't have the cap or Picks to make this trade Highly unlikely
