And make no mistake about it, Dee Ford, with nothing more than a quick first step in his arsenal, is a project.

And that is also exactly what Fisher was.

So what you're saying is that if we have to choose between a high risk / high reward player vs. a low ceiling but more NFL ready right away, we should go with the latter?

I hated taking a LT last year. But no doubt you go with Fisher over Joeckl, even if Joeckl is more NFL ready. This is the same shit that would have had us passing on Dontari Poe and Branden Albert. And we bagged on this guys when they first started out first.

CP gets pissy that our front office doesn't take chances then when we take chances, we want more NFL ready. It's ****ing stupid.

And no, I'm not crazy about the Ford pick. I'm pissy about how many people on here think it's a bad idea to take a 3-4 OLB even if it takes a year for that guy to develop. Assuming he has true first round talent which I'm not convinced Ford does.
