If he can't block Jones or Clark in practice, he has no business being a starting LT in the NFL. That should be the test this week. The Titans 3rd string tackles looked like Hall of Famers yesterday.

Wish they would have tried to hire Dan Roushar away from the ‘Aints. Or someone of his caliber to coach up the o-line. Asst HC or whatever it would have taken. The current coaching staff was not up to having this revamped o-line ready.

Brown ****ing sucks. He can't block speed. He's just big as hell with long arms. Veach ****ed up and wasted another first 2 years in a row. Clyde is another waste of a first.

Wrong. While Brown hasn't turned out like we hoped, he was still the best option available at the time. Considering we got Baltimore's 2nd rounder (who ended up being Bolton) out of it we were able to come out on top with Bolton and Humphrey.

Since you consider the use of that 1st on Brown, who would you have taken with the #31 pick? Also between Bolton and Humphrey, who would you sacrifice as we would not have gotten both?

This means we don't have to worry about Brown and CEH now.

It’s not just Browns handling of pass rushers, it’s his complete lack of mobility that’s killing this offense. The reason Reid and Dorsey took Fish #1 is because he can handle speed rushers, but could move extremely well. That’s critical in an offense that likes to attack horizontally.

We just can’t run a lot of the types of plays Reid likes to run without a LT that can get out in space to block LBers and DBs. Brown can’t change his spots, either. He is what he is.

Even though it sucks to say that.

If we could go back in time, the universe wanted us to sign Trent Williams. His salary would be Beown plus Reed (who hasn’t been a difference maker, anyway). That was absolutely a deal we needed to get signed.

Silverback
Thuney
Humphrey
Smith
Remmers

Mahomes would have time to scan the field and wouldn’t be making the rushed mistakes he’s making consistently by not having any time.

Looks like we'll be picking #1 next year so we can draft the best Fatty

I'm just not a fan of revisionist history exercises like this, its pointless

Fish is gone, and Silverdick was never here... we have what we have, and need to focus on what we can do with them IMO

Last year, we lost all sorts of Olineman and still won. After we lost Fisher, we've never been the same.

Fisher is able to move with Mahomes, Brown can't.


No-brainer, Fisher.

No Gaz or Willie Roaf options? I need a hug.

Fisher was injured and there was no guarantee he would be the same player after his injury. You are making it seem like we cut a healthy Fisher for Brown.

And we would still be a bad football team because this team has no pass rush and I'm thankful we didnt sign William's because 25 million a year tied into a middle 30s LT isnt what this team needs. Thankfully we will be able to shed alot of the deadweight big money guys this off season.

BTW Williams has been hurt already this year which isnt unusual for him. I just dont get where this idea that Williams is the missing piece.

The question posed is Fisher's play in the past vs Brown's current play. The answer is undoubtedly Fisher and it isn't even close.

If you were to ask me now? It doesn't much matter. Fisher isn't 100% and therefore playing about as slow as Brown. That doesn't change the fact that Brown doesn't fit this offense at LT. I don't even think he's a fit at RT.
