Exactly like Bruce Mathew's first season...He was a low 1st round pick himself, with a lot of expectations, and he was flat out terrible year 1. Mathews has stated many times that Fish has everything to become an excellent LT. He knows a bit about the subject and situation. I for one believe him. However, I understand how many folks wouldn't.

Please. Throughout the season there was a nonstop bitchfest about how dumb the Chiefs were for taking a guy who flashed nothing in Memphis. The "bust" label may not have been thrown out as much, but the majority of posters on CP hated the pick all of last year.

By mid season as a rookie, he was already playing at starters level and by years end was making plays. |

That didn't stop people from bitching. The majority of people still hated the pick. It wasn't until this preseason that people started to change their minds. I know, because I was one of the few that defended the pick from day 1 (different from Fisher, where I've criticized the pick from day 1)

But the same people here that make excuse after excuse for a guy like Fisher are the ones that say we should sit a QB and let him learn behind a veteran. It's all the same message - just win 9 games and make the playoffs. "Give me hope." It's all BS. |

I dont even recall people hating the pick.
I recall a bunch of people just wondering why the Chiefs couldn't have traded down to the late teens/early 20's and making the same pick while adding more draft picks. |

Because it was a shit draft and no one wanted to move up.

Fisher also played with a severely hurt shoulder and hand all year. That's not easy.

I've been critical of Dorsey for picking Fisher, but not of Fisher himself. The Rufus Dawes comment is about you and the way your every post in every thread is defending every thing the Chiefs are doing. I feel like I'm at a sewage facility and you're trying to tell me that smell in the air is chocolate.
