Fisher to LT?

@AdamSchefter: Chiefs HC Andy Reid said he plans to go to camp this summer with former No. 1 overall pick Eric Fisher playing left tackle.

Sorry if Q

I think what most people are suggesting is that you dont make that pick at 1.1 with a pro-bowl LT already on the roster.

He was basically given the RT spot, and if Albert had been here he would have been given the LT spot.

Every team does it. The ONLY reason he played RT is because the team failed to trade Albert.

Probably a good move on their part in all reality. The only draw back is that some fans are not capable of understanding what was asked of Fisher and that it was a short term solution from the very beginning.

Are you serious?

There's a simple easy answer here guys. It's "don't draft this guy"

Interesting twist. He's good enough to be 1.1 and be handed a job, but not good enough to start in his rookie season.

And this is where I'll bring up the QB topic. People argued forever that you can't take a QB at 1.1 and sit him for a year behind Alex Smith. But we probably should have benched our 1.1 LT because he was from a small school and wasn't ready.

Which implies a lack of forethought on their part.

You do when that LT's contract is up and wants 10mil per. season.

Fisher played RT over Stephenson for much of last year despite being an inferior player. Why would I relax considering that history?

They have had a clear vision since drafting Fisher 1.1 overall.

1) Draft Fisher
2) Let Albert walk
3) Play Fisher at LT and profit

There have been no indications they will waiver from that vision.

If the Chiefs were going to play wait-and-see games with Albert like this, they should have drafted DJ Fluker at 1.1 and given themselves an entire offseason to watch both Albert AND Donald Stephenson. If they like Stephenson, let Albert walk the next season. If they don't, then they re-sign Albert next year for his money and move on. Or find another replacement in free agency.

The ****ery that went on with Fisher's position change is only further complicating matters. It's unnecessary, and the Chiefs made this far more difficult than it needs to be.

Yes, people would have wrecked shit if Fluker had been the pick, but at least it's a firm decision, you're actually GETTING a great player at his natural position, and it's not like the Chiefs already didn't **** the fanbase over with the Alex Smith trade.

Stephenson Allen Hudson Poop**** Fluker

Is a lot more sturdy than

Fisher Allen Hudson Poop**** Stephenson

Do you not see the gap in your statement?

OF COURSE, we recognize it was a short-term solution from the very beginning.

That's the ENTIRE ARGUMENT the past 2 weeks.

Everything about last year was "short term".

Now all of the sudden this year, they're "building for the future" and we're supposed to be happy about it and trust them.

The circular logic here is hilarious.
