Chiefswinitall 60 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 What do we do with this guy? God another draft pick we have to burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkuenn 3,613 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 He had a bad game for sure but until they get a LG worthy I would stick with him. We have other pressing needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thegoatee 1,782 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 As many injuries as we have we need to draft a couple of linemen for depth, but save them for mid to late rounds. But Fisher doesn’t deserve a big 3rd contract. He is okay. I just think no one in KC understands how he made the Pro Bowl... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Fisher isn't good but still serviceable, I think we have more pressing needs before upgrading LT. If someone is giving up a high pick for Fisher I would probably unload him but otherwise no need to look elsewhere until 2020 when he'll be cheap to replace.

Chiefswinitall 60 Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 Yah, need to draft some offensive skill and some Olineman too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 When the oline is healthy it’s average, but well thought out enough to Andy’s system we had leagues leading rusher last year and passer this year. Fisher has had some real struggles this year at times , but he’s fine for now. Certainly would help had we not lost our best interior olineman for the season.

qnet 1,158 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Years ago when the Chiefs had Willie Roaf I seen how good an offense can be when they have a HOF LT. Since then I had been stuck on the Chiefs drafting a LT in the draft. They drafted Albert, and he was good at times, and of course we had Shields for all those seasons. I was excited when they drafted Fisher, but he hasn't lived up to where he was drafted, which is very hard to do. I think he's played good at times, very good, but when he messes up it's usually at the worst time. He gets overpowered a lot. I agree with you in this thread who say the Chiefs have other needs. The next time the Chiefs draft a LT , it's got to be someone big and stout, like Willie Roaf, or Jonathan Ogden . Fisher is listed at 315, but I bet that's exaggerated and he's closer to 300. Roaf played at 320 and Ogden a whopping 340, and I bet those weights were exaggerated the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkuenn 3,613 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Roaf and that line had each other. It was solid as hell with each guy doing well. You can have an elite LT but if the LG is shit you still will get shit. Not saying Fisher is end all, but I want to see the LG really upgraded before going after LT, heck Center too before LY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what he would be like if we drafted another LT, and moved him over to the right side? Overall Fisher has had a good year, but at the same time, when he has struggled, it's been pretty bad. He seems to be either really good or really struggling, not much in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamardirts 2,121 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Jeff Allen is a huge problem bu Fischer has been getting served these last two weeks. I mean just bull rushed into Mahomes lap over and over again. Mahomes masks a lot of it by moving around the pocket but that left side of the line couldn't give him any time last night.

Once LDT comes back to RG Wylie can kick over to LG. I like Wylie and think he has done a very good job. He is big and physical. Can get out in space and move. And plays nasty.

Chiefsbro 10 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 jAs much as I'd like to drag Fisher in the mud, I recall that every time we play the Texans, he punks J J Watt for most of the game, and usually ends #99's season.. I believe It has happened two or maybe three times....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes done ok as a fill in. But hes not a long term solution. Hes graded out pretty poorly, and Ive noticed a marked increase in pressure up the middle the last 4 weeks. I think ideally theChiefs would like to see Mackenzie grab that spot. But a competition between him, Wylie, and Erving should only help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,210 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 The Chiefs need to draft O-line on the second day and I think it should be OG. They signed the center that played pretty well when Morse was down and Devey did okay, but LDT, new guy, and Erving will improve the line enough to help Mahomes.

Palangi 788 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 I don't think Wylie has been the issue inside. I think it is more LG and the center. I'm not a Morse fan. I think he is vastly overrated. I hope Mackenzie is being groomed to be our future center. If we can get an upgrade over Wylie then I'm all for it. But I've been pleased with him to this point.

Calichief 3,022 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 We make excuses for fish at times like people made for Alex -“not enough around/next to him” eric Fisher isn’t terrible, he isn’t great, hes in between there somewhere. That first overall pick haunts them both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wylie is a good backup but hasn't shown enough to be a starter IMO. Definitely need him around and he could progress nicely over the next couple years or something but too soon to name him LG.
