One of the biggest reasons people pointed to when drafting Fisher/Joeckel was that they were more "Safe" bets than someone like Geno. If he was SO much safer, he should be performing at a higher level, relative to his position, than Geno Smith.
He's not.
Geno Smith plays a much higher impact position than Fisher (and will even if Fisher is moved back to the LT spot) and he has played it at a higher level. He has flashed periods of superstar ability. We haven't seen anything close to that from Fisher (though it's harder to see from an OT than a QB).
