Dee Ford was a reach at that point in the draft. Fisher was generally regarded as one of the top two/three guys in his draft class by just about everyone.
The guy has very limited numbers/statistics to back up his pass rush potential and looks to be drafted on physical numbers alone.
I think he's more Vernon Gholston than anything at this point.
I think that the Chiefs/Dorsey got caught up in his numbers versus actual production. I would have preferred guys like Kyle Van Noy or Trevor Reilly over Dee Ford straight up due to their versatility and college production.
Dee Ford is a special teamer/situational pass rusher at this point at best. They could have picked up the best guard prospect in the draft in either Xavier S'ua-Filo or Gabe Jackson and filled a major hole on the offensive line rather than wasting the pick on a guy who is going to struggle finding the field on regular downs.
I think it was a ****ed up pick.
