Eric Fisher doesn't suck

He isn't talking about finding a legit franchise QB in that post.

He said it won't be good to shuffle our OL next year without a legit franchise QB, because Alex Smith isn't good enough. What else does that mean?

It means we should try to keep this line together.

That was exactly my point. I thought it was pretty easy to follow.

Sunday's line was impressive. I see no reason why they can't keep it together, outside of injury, of course.

But what this season (and last season to a much higher degree) has shown is that the lack of depth at the right tackle position has all but killed the Chiefs chances at the playoffs.

The Chiefs are set at LT, LG and Center next year. LDT will only improve and Fulton is an adequate backup. The right tackle position is a dumpster fire in terms of depth, especially considering Allen's propensity for injury the past two seasons.

Right tackle can be adequately addressed from rounds 3-5 in next year's draft, IMO, especially if Allen can stay healthy the rest of 2015.
