I don't have to pretend anything.

He pointed to the history of other teams, I didn't.

The fact that Albert was on the roster is irrelevant.

Lets just pretend that he should have been if they were picking Fisher.

Chiefs fans. It's never ever on the player. "Coordinators sucks, coaching sucks,"

Ok, he was physically beaten. He's also a rookie from a small school who was taking a big step up in competition. He probably shouldn't have even started last year. He clearly wasn't ready. It doesn't mean he can't make massive improvements.

What's so wrong with saying something like the following:

"Going into training camp, we need to address our LT position. We have two great young players that we're very confident in, Eric Fisher and Donald Stephenson. We're going to let them compete at that spot and give the job to the player we feel is best prepared to protect our QB's blind side."



Our 1.1 needs every snap he can get to maximize his and our chance of success. Then if he struggles bad enough they'll do something different. I mean if they were damming the torpedoes in regards to playing Fisher playing LT they would have forced him into it last year. Relax it's only March.

Splitting hairs, much?

That's it.
The position he was drafted at 1.1 to play.

Hilarious that the same people that bitched about Dorsey saying that Fisher was penciled in at RT are now bitching because Reid simply says he will be "playing LT"

Completely different things.

On one end: You're taking a "safe" player at 1.1 overall to play him at RT for a year and then slide him to LT to replace a good player.

On the other: You're giving the LT spot to that same safe player despite him being extremely disappointing as a rookie and being outplayed overall by another young player on the roster.

We were told he was the way player available in the draft. Either we were lied to, or our front office sucked.

There was a Pro-bowl LT on the roster.

Are you suggesting we play Albert at G, or RT?

Yet, you don't have any examples of other teams doing what the Chiefs did, do you?

I'm sorry you painted yourself in to a corner. I'll take it easier on you next time.

Wow.

We've gone from "no problem handing him the job without any competition based solely on being 1.1" to "he shouldn't have even started last year, he clearly wasn't ready."

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.

LMAO

Ad this was the guy we said was the best player in the entire draft. Does no one else see the farce here?

Te best player we thought available, got physically beaten and was te 3rd best tackle in our team.

Judging rookies after one year is always the logical thing to do ROFL
