    Default More love for Branden Albert

    Pete Prisco (CBS analyst) released some interesting rankings. It ranks teams based on 4 things:

    1. Franchise QB
    2. Pass rusher
    3. Shutdown Corner
    4. Franchise left tackle

    So the team with the best pass rusher (or corner or left tackle) in the league gets 32 points. For quarterback, it is the same, except QB gets double points. So Aaron Rodgers is worth 64 points.

    For the Chiefs rankings at each of these positions, we have:

    1. Cassel, 24
    2. Albert, 10
    3. Hali, 9
    4. Flowers, 5

    This puts the Chiefs at ninth overall (wow!).

    Albert continues to get respect as one of the better (top third) left tackles in the league. Profootballfocus has also graded him out very well. What I don't get is why some (namely chief31) will continue to call for the replacement of Albert, while defending Cassel. Seems like very backwards logic.

    Nice to see Flowers and Hali get some respect too, though I would argue that Hali is too low.

    I think they're in the same class but not quite at the same level within that class.

    Absolutely, I feel this year will be a true thunder and lightning year.

    It stacks up better than last year. Yes we dropped off a bit with Carr leaving but not much. The major addition is getting Berry back.

    That will depend on how well Hudson picks up being a center and how well the entire line gels.

    Red, it takes away from my eyes being bloodshot after a night of drinking.

    Well since the Mayans didn't recognize the leap year the world ended sometime last year. We're just in extended time like a soccer game.

    It'll be interesting to see how Cassel will distribute the ball after getting some time with Baldwin being the #1 in OTA's

Maybe not the slot we picked him as but a good starter over all. Please, PLEASE give up that tired excuse.
    See Packers. They drafted a NT that was available at our selection who rated by most everyone higher than Jackson.

    Raji was ranked as the worst NT/DT in the league last year by ProFootballFocus.com.
