Best pick we could have made in this draft reminds me of Alt too and that ain't bad.

I was on the sidelines for one game standing next to John Alt. That man was at least 6'8". That dude could literally block the sun. I hope Fisher can become the player Alt was, great pick if so...

The whole "small school" thing is bullshit. Even if he played against weaker competition in college, the talent was evident and showed when you watched him play. He'll get caught up to the pro level relatively quickly with having to go against Houston and Hali everyday in practice.

Much happier this morning than I've been the last two years after the first round. This young man is a good start for this regime. I trust Dorsey to nail the remainder of this draft.

From what I have seen of Dorsey and the new brain trust at Arrowhead. I have much more faith in this organization than I have in A LONG time.
I think the word you used "trust" is a very accurate description.

From what I have seen, I have no doubt this franchise is in a much better place with much better leadership than what we have seen in many MANY years.

Several years ago I posted stats on SB winning QBs and their blindside tackles. Most of the QBs that are considered great had a T drafted the year before or the same year the QB was drafted. Brady benefited from a T drafted to protect Bledsoe. A solid line that gives its QB extra time in the pocket makes the QB better, the WR better, and hopefully the team better.
