But changing the draft board completely just because of Fisher is a bad idea. That's how you end up overreacting and reaching. We already had a need at OT - there should be OT's on the draft board. Stick with draft board and if one is there, take one. But don't rearrange the draft board just because of Fisher.

I'm not saying you change the draft board. I just think their ability to trade up for what might be a luxury is reduced.
I don't think it's 100 percent they take an OT in the 1st by any means. This draft is deep at that spot and they may end up grading all the guys available after the top 10 and before Day 3 as being similar.

Who is the can't-miss T prospect that we need to get if we go that route?

It's more of losing some of the flexibility to spend draft capital to move up as much as it would take to grab Pitts.
I shouldn't say "No way." It's possible they would still pay that price to move up for a playmaker they think is worth it.
Maybe they view Pitts or Devonta Smith or Jamarr Chase that way. Maybe if one of those guys slips into the mid-1st they make the move.
