Anyone who blindly assumes Fisher is the best bet at LT and shouldn't have to EARN that spot is naive.

They're going to play him at LT because he was the "safe" pick at 1.1 and they have to do it for PR sake. That doesn't make it the "right' move or a move that is automatically agreed with.

But it's no guarantee he's going to be a success there, after watching him get his ass kicked for most of 2013.

Any argument to the contrary is hilariously ridiculous and is only being made to be argumentative.

There is no downside to this move. You have to see if he is the player thought he was when you drafted him.
No downside?

That's what makes this whole "tale of two offseasons" ****ing weird. The smart move would have been to let Albert walk, or take whatever they could get for him, after they drafted Fisher. But they couldn't do that because they had just traded 2 second round picks for Smith. They would have gotten at least a 3rd rounder in this years draft and Fisher wouldn't have had to learn a new position....and then move back.

Now he comes in this year....basically a rookie still....and he has to protect Alex Smith. Hope to God that strength program works out great for him.

That's how you build a winning team.
Your Fisher butthurt is showing.

But that's been the discussion all offseason, not whether Fisher WOULD start at LT but whether he SHOULD.
Only his play during real live games can determine that.

There is no way you can not start your 1.1 at LT.

He has to outright lose the job.

That's the way it works. The way it has always worked.

Only if you like to argue about everything under the sun.

Such a dumb argument.

He was drafted to be the LT. He sucked at RT. So promote him to LT?

Who ****ing cares what he was drafted for when he can't even prevent Alex from being sacked from the side he can see?

The bolded part is simply wrong. Nothing about Fisher makes him basically a rookie this year.

Butthurt would imply that I have an emotive response. I'm not mad.

It was a horrible pick and they followed up with horrible moves. He was horrible for a large part of the year at RT but they're going to hand him the LT job.

If that screams "success" to you, I don't know what to tell you.

No the dumb argument is to think the plan hasn't always been to move him to LT.

Just like many of the other tackles taken in the first round last year.

You do know that Alex Smith has an injury history, right?
