Leramy Tunsil just got $22 million and people are STILL trying to cut Eric Fisher to save half that?
Jesus.

It's dick for a LT.
The problem will be 2 years from now when Fisher asks for $20 million. SOMEONE is going to pay him that. Fish is a good LT who's put in tough situations all the time and generally acquits himself nicely. His absence was so clearly felt last year that I just dont understand how hes still a whipping boy around here.

I would not expect Fisher or Schwartz to leave before minimum 2 years but it is definitly a good move to invest in the Oline now especially that they have not invested much there recently. The guy supposedly can play G. Fisher or Schwartz could get injured. Maybe Niang progresses really quick and you can save money by releasing Fisher one year from now. Maybe Niang takes over LT at the expiration of Fisher's contract and you are not pigeon holed into taking a LT in the 1st round. I believe the pick makes a ton of sense. |

But he has acquitted himself as of recent and has been better. Was he worth the 1.1? Probably not. However, given how that draft played out... 1. Fisher - Still playing - Solid 2. Jockel - Out of the NFL after 2017 - Bust 3. Jordan - Still playing but wasn't very good. Bounced around to 3 teams now. 4. Johnson - Still playing - Solid 5. Ansah - Still playing - Decent. None of these guys were 1.1 value in my opinion. But the Chiefs got it right with Fisher, because if I recall, it was between him or Jockel.

The older he gets, the worse it will be. If Fisher is banged up next season again, and the Chiefs get wind he'll be looking for a giant payday as he hits 30 in 2021, it's time to move on if this kid is ready.

I really love this pick because he looks like an exceptional athlete at a premium position that would have likely gone 1st rd if he didn’t have the injury.
He really is one of those players that can diversify and give us good play right away at LG, LT or RT if an injury occurs and possibly start at either tackle spot in the future. This pick is the one that could make the draft “good” to “outstanding” if he does a good job starting at tackle by the end of his rookie contract.

Fisher is under contract through the end of the 2021 season, so they have two more drafts and offseasons before they need to either make a move for a new left tackle or begin grooming someone that's already on the roster. If Fisher is still valuable in 2022 but the Chiefs don't or can't meet his contract demands, they'll allow him to walk and receive a 3rd round Comp Pick in return. But that's a long way out in football terms. |
