Brown or Fish?

Not a good situation for a team that use those draft picks to help our rebuild. We may have to rebuild? But of course at the time the Chiefs made the trade they weren’t thinking this. But it’s just interesting to see given the state of this team
now, those draft picks could’ve been savoured, used and possibly handy?

This isn't the question asked, though. You're creating a false choice whereby 'keep a healthy Eric Fisher' is an option.

It wasn't. Your options are a compromised Fisher and a 1st (let's say Joe Tryon for the sake of debate) or Brown, Bolton and about $10 million in cap space in 2021.

I think the latter is pretty obviously preferable given Fisher's performance coming off his injury this year. He's just not the same player and there was no reason to expect he would be in 2021.
