There, you said it yourself, Albert struggled. The LT position is the most important position on the Offense outside of the QB & if he can't protect the passer when his team needs to throw the ball, then a change is most certainly needed.
Sorry, but that's just a humping-the-neighbors-dog type of statement there. It's not only way off base from the suggestion of moving Albert to a position that he's played before, it's not even remotely in the ballpark.
As I said before, nobody knows that for certain & I'll bet money that if the fans had been clamoring for Russell Okung instead of Berry, the pick would've been Russell Okung.
I'll wager that it won't be too hard for any those 3 that I mentioned to beat Albert out of the LT position, seeing as all 3 are better pass blockers.
