For that high of a pick, shouldn't he AT LEAST be an IMMEDIATE upgrade to Eric Winston (who we cut to make room for Fisher) and flash the ability to throw around backup quality players....or even be able to throw around third string playersxthat were cut from 2 win teams like Austen Lane?
FFS, I would HOPE SO.
If you draft a position like RT, guard, ILB, fullback, kicker or punter (positions of less importance than playmaking skill position guys or other positions that impact wins and losses) that high in the draft, that player better enter the league KICKING ASSES AND TAKING NAMES.
Right now, Eric Fisher is doing nothing but putting a larger target on his back for opposing players to shoot at so they can say:
"I kicked the ass of the first overall pick in the draft"
If something doesn't drastically chanclge quickly, a lot of players are gonna get that feather in their cap.

Boss that is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard. Do you think for 2 minute Fisher is sitting around thinking OMG I am making a bigger target of myself.
Do you really think other players are working harder in camp so they can kick his ass specifically?
JFC what a crock.
Fisher is working to get better, end of story. That's all he is concerned about I am certain of that.
If the guy feels any kind of pressure being the #1 I am fine with it because that means he cares. He already got his $. All he cares about right now is learning his job and kicking ass.
