Fisher does have plenty of time to turn it around. For Alex's sake and our sake, I hope he does. But like I said, this isn't what you expect from a #1 overall pick. He's one of the worst LTs in the league as of today.

It's been explained to you 100 million times that LT's aren't drafted to be franchise changers. They are drafted to the cornerstone of that teams O-Line. Would Geno have changed the Chiefs franchise? No, he would not have, any more than Matt Cassel did and with Alex Smith already having been traded for, it would have been stupid to draft Geno. Plus, the Albert situation to boot.
Funny how Seattle drafted their LT first ( Okung ) and then got Russell Wilson ( 3rd round ) afterward & did these moves keep them from going to the SB and winning it?
Terrible analogy. For one, 31 teams didn't need a QB. 23 teams passed on Rodgers. 32 teams passed on Russell Wilson (twice). 32 teams passed on Drew Brees. For as good as they're perceived to be, NFL teams get the QB position wrong a lot.
Pointless to debate this anymore for now. More than willing to revisit one The draft class has some more games under their belt.
