Well write with the other one and see how that works for you...I dont care if you practiced a year, when you switch back to your normal writing hand, it will be easier for you and you will write better. Anyone who dismisses the change of position from LT to RTdoes not know what they're talking about. Its nearly impossible to accomplish and be as good at both, much less doing so in one's rookie season against the best competition on the planet. Bruce Mathews, arguably the best O-Lineman in NFL history, said Fish has all the tools to be a great LT. He knows a little something about O-Lineman. I'd believe him...

For the sake of this team, I hope you're right. Wait, left... Shit!

Anyway, I hope he's a stud over on the left side.

No one here is saying they hope the guy fails, that's also ridiculous. Saying he collectively wasn't very good last year and voicing concerns over whether he will ever be this or that, isn't the same as wanting the guy to suck.

And lastly, just because said qb or player buster elsewhere, doesn't necessarily mean he shouldn't have been the pick here. Situations and circumstances are different everywhere

Great post.

It will be interesting to see how all of the LT's taken will do.

I think Fisher's biggest problems were strength and inexperience on the right side.

I think Fisher and Johnson have a chance to be really, really good.

Fisher's upside is much higher than a guy like Joeckel, for example.

Yes, absolutely. Not sure what you're getting at here, but I originally created that thread around his first NFL start. So it could have been a boom or bust thread.

Because it's easy to walk around sticking your pinky out after the fact and say, "Chiefs should have drafted Marino instead of Blackledge."

We've had a QB problem in KC for decades. And like it or not, every time we pass on a Jimmy Clausen, we're passing out on a chance to end that problem. So it seems rather convenient that you should take a similar situation regarding a QB who dropped quite a distance in the draft and say, "Look, here's a QB we should have taken. We wouldn't be ****ing around with Croyle and Huard if that were the case."

I believe he started that thread before Aaron Rodgers ever became a starter. Think about that for a minute.

Yeah, I just found it.

He started that thread in August of 2008.

Aaron Rodgers had played in 7 games at that point. If anything, it makes DeBerg look like ****ing Nostradamus...

RealSNR 03-26-2014 10:09 AM

To DeBerg's credit, CP wasn't as QB-crazy as it was from 2009 to the present. I think he earnestly started that thread to try and prove a point.

So don't worry, Deberg. Just find us the next QB already in the league who's ready to bust out, and then start that thread. Then you can mock Mark Sanchez, Jimmy Clausen, Geno Smith, Matt Barkley, and even Steele ****ing Jantz if you want. Do it as often as you wish, because you're a ****ing swami!

I really think that it COULD be Alex Smith.

I just wish they'd have a better sense of urgency when it comes to surrounding him with talent.

I think they're trying.

Avery/Bowe/Sanders would have been explosive.

It didn't work out, but they were clearly trying...

They're not trying hard enough on the line. The guy needs protection.

I really think we could be looking at our best WR core (on paper) if/when we draft ODB/Lee/Cooks.

That would be great if that happened

And when we pass on all those guys and take Zach Martin (who technically isn't even a guard)?
