Fisher is a zone blocking type Oline guy. Also most penalized...Im seeing the Penn Stae LT in our future..in the 3rd.

No way one of the top WR speed threats(game speed) in the draft survives 25 more picks in a league that has a premium on such players.

Of couse most the huddle thinks Justin Hardy is the second coming of Jerry Rice.

I do not care what scheme his college team ran. He has great hands and is the most athletic T in the draft. The dude has the tools to be an elite pass blocker. All he needs is to just be servicable run blocking.

The thing about Oregon linemen is that they're taught to hold on the outside. Chip's philosophy was that the refs might call it a few times but not every play and the gain is worth the penalty yards. I think that's something that's easily correctable. What can't be coached is his motor and nastiness. He may be a little on the light side of what Gettlemen is looking for but I think he has a chance to be a solid pro and a potential upgrade at either LT or RT in the future.

No he projects as a zone blocker..ala Houston Texans, KC, Denver.

Zone blockers are usually the weaker but athletic guys.

Donavan Smith projects as a more true LT for most schemes according to most of the stuff I have read.

I wish we used a zone blocking scheme again. It helped Deangeo and Jstew alot.

He is weaker due to his build and weight. His aggressiveness and nasty streak somewhat offsets that. 

 

He certainly wont be the best run blocker, but he can be an elite pass blocker imo.

Fisher needs at least a year of a NFL level strength and conditioning program.  I still don't get the hype outside of reading his measurables. 

 

Huh? You even watch football bro? 

 

Go watch one of his games. He has very strong hands that latch on to defenders. Has really good quick feet and good technique. 

 

Only negative I see on his is he is not the best run blocker.

Don't pull that bs one liner crap.  His second halves against AZ State, Utah, AZ and Oregon State were atrocious.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
