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.

      Sellers is absolutely one to keep an eye on. Could be the next Cam or could be the next Anthony Richardson. Curious to see how he has progressed come this fall.

      I think Texas could go 0-12 and he would still go #1 based on his name and traits like you say.  But nusselman and sellers may be actually better qbs.    Man if bryce stinks it up this season its looking like a damn good year to swap out qbs.  Sellers highlights are just fuging jaw dropping

      I mean, the kid comes from a wealthy family. It's not like he needs the money. He has a ton of potential now we get to see what he can do as a starter. Everyone penciling him in as the #1 overall pick is putting the cart way before the horse. It's 5% because of his talent and what he's showing on the field and 95% because his last name is Manning. And if he is what he's hyped to be the Texas coaching staff needs to be answering some tough questions about why the kid wasn't on the field sooner. Ewers was a good college QB but he's definitely not a "keep a future #1 overall pick waiting" type of college QB. Only getting one season out of a top NFL talent because you chose to keep him buried behind a borderline NFL talent is just coaching negligence. Not starting him as a true freshman? Yeah, I get that. But on year two if the kids is what he's hyped to be you gotta wish Ewers well elsewhere and turn the page.
