Again, seems like a more professional approach overall.

for real, last year was the most extreme. The FO did such a good job of hiding their interest in AH until the last couple days before FA, then boom, he signs. I didn't like it before or after, but I had to try & spin it to myself that it was a good move.

Glad that so far (there's a long way to go) I'm not dealing w/any of that.

I wonder if BA and MS think Albert is an asset to the team or a big headache that they need to try to fit somewhere, especially now that they are looking at the 3-4. I am guessing the latter.

I think anytime you have a guy as talented as AH, you look for a way to get the most out of him.

Well no matter what they think they are paying him 32 million in 14 months and he is still the most dominant Defensive lineman in football.

I think Shanahan is confident in his ability to manage a personality like Phat Albert.
