Albert's asking price holding up potential trade - wants Jake Long money ($8+ million per year)

Simply put, if Jake Long isn't worth $8.5 million per year in the eyes of Jeff Ireland, I doubt the Dolphins see Albert as being worth $8+ million per year AND a second round pick. It's up to Albert whether or not he becomes a Dolphin - he either accepts a contract closer to $7 million per year, or he plays under the franchise tag with the Chiefs for this season for $10 million guaranteed.
