He needs to be better than Brandon Albert level.
Though I certainly take exception to the folks around here that are arguing that he can't be.
Albert was a technical wreck, we all realize that - right? I mean Albert's a good tackle, but he's in that 8-10 range with a lot of other good tackles.
Do people really not believe that Fisher is capable of being a hell of a lot better than that? There is literally no single area where Albert is physically a better prospect than Fisher. Albert managed to get by through some of the most unconventionally effective blocking you'll ever see. He's the Dominick Hasek of left-tackles; you would never teach anyone to do what he does.
And while that made him effective, it also limited his ceiling somewhat.
Fisher's is well beyond Albert's and I truly do believe Fisher will prove to be Albert's equal by mid-season.
Guys, Fisher is a really really good prospect. Someone please tell me what it is they see in this kid that makes them think that he's 3-4 years removed from being a top 10 LT in this league?
If he is, the pick is an unqualified failure. I don't think that will be the case.
