He wasn't seen as the best tackle until about one day before the draft (when experts probably started hearing leaks the Chiefs would take him).. He'll be a decent starter but for 1.1 be disappointing overall.

I'm very "meh" over the possibility of losing BA while drafting EF. I like the idea of keeping both if it happens.
A common ailment for big men are back problems. Not always career fatal but usually the sign that the peak has occured. BA has already missed a few games with that. Getting a stud to replace him even if he plays right tackle for a year is good insurance. If BA is fine next year then try and keep him around and your have BEAST bookends on the line, if not, then you have a replacement for him if he goes down. There are other needs on the team but after tying a record for not leading a minute in regulation for over 8 games I'm glad that they're doing something to improve the offense.

I think Fish will be a multiple Pro Bowl left tackle from his rookie season onward. He is a superb pass blocker and he mauls in the run game with a nasty approach.

Did not want OT 1.1, but Fish will be a monster, mark my words.

I'm not sure why people keep saying he needs to be a pro bowler to be considered a good draft pick.

He has to be better or measure up to anyone taken in the top 10. And Geno has to be worse than whatever QB we end up using in 3 years. That's it. It's not like we had a ton of surefire future pro bowlers sitting there at the #1 pick.

With the Albert issue, this pick has to be an ungodly upgrade or it will be like slamming your dick in the door with no payoff.

Why? That's silly. What was your alternative?

A long list of other offensive linemen? A bunch of DE/OLBs to sit in line with Hali and Houston? A QB who fell a full round? To trade down several spots to take a worse player and only get a 2nd rounder in return? The only two guys that could have made sense were Milliner and Tavon Austin. Let's not be ridiculous and suggest that the Chiefs had very many options to work with. Given the shitty options, Fisher was a good pick and if he's as good as Albert, that's fine.

Why not? The #1 overall pick you expect excellence not mediocrity. It's that easy, and it's the cruel truth.

No, the cruel truth is that this was a lackluster draft class. Again, what was your alternative? I laid them all out for you and they were no better than picking Fisher.

No it isn't, and only a ****ing moron like you would suggest using the #1 overall selection in the draft to select a player that doesn't improve the position he plays in any way is a fine use of the pick.

That is mind boggling stupid.

Nobody in the top 10 fits that bill. Except Geno Smith, who fell a full round and maybe Dee Milliner. The Chiefs had no good options. This was a fine bad option. At the very least, you can grab a decent 2014 pick out of Albert and save $5-6M a year.

I expect him to be elite out of the gate.

anything else will disappoint me

however, watching the draft unfold...he was clearly the right pick

look I think Branden Albert was a very serviceable tackle

but he did have a knack for being injured

he is getting older

and he is going to be expensive

and there is absolutely no reason to believe Fisher won't be an upgrade

Albert was good, but he certainly wasn't elite.

And for 1 year we'll have the best RT we've had since Tait...and he may even be better. That's not exciting but it's definitely an upgrade.
