Houston and Hali had combined for 19 sacks the season before when the Chiefs finished 2-14. Pass rush was the least of their worries after running back.
Even if you consider Ansah to be better (and I don't), that's a 1 in 9 chance of making a better pick. Fisher has ended up as the best top-prospect pick available in that draft, pure and simple. It's unfortunate that there was no franchise quarterback available, but there wasn't.
