    Disagree about Fisher.

    He's got a lot to prove this TC.

    Fisher has a lot to prove, but the point that was made is accurate. He was the same level of prospect and has a year under his belt. He has a better shot at either winning a RT spot or being a swing tackle this year than Ersery does. Ersery may come in and just blow everyone away, but chances are that he needs developmental time and isn't starting or really playing much at all in year 1.

    I agree with you about Ersery needing development.

    I dont think Fisher and Ersery are the same level of prospect though. Ersery was the Big 10 OL of the year. He's the better prospect and at some point I expect Ersery to be starting somewhere along the OL this year.

    Ersery won this award over guys like Conerly/Jackson/Simmons etc....

    Probably would have been the same for any OL drafted in the first 2 rounds

    Nick out here feeding homeless families. They might've selected the wrong pope.
