I think a lot of his struggles are coming from playing RT instead of LT.
I don't like Mark Schlereth, but I did like his analogy he used at the SB to describe the Ravens moving OL around. He said it's like a right handed batter switching to the left side. It's just not easy to adapt to because your stance and technique is switched to the other side.
It's like Fisher was a dominant left handed hitter in college that is now batting right handed and playing against professionals.
I think he'll adapt though. The kid has supreme athleticism for his position and he's a hard worker with smarts. He was a goddamn engineering major for crying out loud. He'll get this shit down. He just needs practice.
Can't expect the guy to be a bust because he's struggling at a new position the first week of camp.
