What I expect - On a similar plane as Albert with a little more power and a little less quickness. Basically we used 1.1 on Albert when we already had Albert.
Oh c'mon - Fisher is going to be much quicker than Albert.

I think some folks are really understating Fisher's potential because they don't like that we went tackle.

He's a great athlete that has plus strength for his weight (as opposed to Joeckel, who's strength is below what someone with his size should be). He's going to add a little more bulk and probably play in the 315-325 range. And while I'm with Hamas in that I'm not sure I ever see that 'mean streak' so many talk about, he's simply an incredible athlete for someone his size and his body suggests that he will be damn strong as well.

Fisher has everything you'd want in a LT apart from the mammoth frame that Ogden had. In the end, it's neither impossible or unlikely that he could end up similar to Pace in terms of size and athleticism. Pace also had amazing technique and that will be what ultimately decides Fisher's fate. If he can develop the kind of technique that Pace had, he could approach that class of tackle.
