You keep bringing up other players, they don't matter.

The guy failed at playing rt, but we are supposed to think hell magically improve at lt?

He played LT in college. Switching to RT is like a left handed batter switching to the right side. It's not easy, especially for a rookie.

This year we'll find out what Fisher will do. But for now it's pretty ****ing stupid to judge this kid solely on last years circumstance.

If he were getting beat solely because I technique, you'd have a point.

But he was physically overmatched

He does have a full offseason to be in the Chiefs workouts in the weight program this year. I expect a big change in both technique and physicality this fall, regardless of which side he plays on.

This is the biggest complaint though. We took a guy first overall who wasn't physically able to play at a high level. If it were just a technique thing, you could more easily move past it and look easier.

I think he's got high upside and I'm glad they took him over the others, but there are some pretty big question marks there.

I could be wrong, but didn't Dorsey and Reid both say Joekel was more NFL ready but Fisher had the higher ceiling in the long run?

Yeah.

But I'd imagine he was a little less physical than they thought.

Essentially, we drafted a guy first overall who we hope becomes a good player after spending a year in the weight room. That's not very impressive

He does need to shine this season though! If not, then I agree.
