Did you see KC's OL in the SB? Running out of healthy OL is why they couldn't compete in that game. I have to think there's no way they're parting with an OL right now who they think can help them moving forward.

Pass.

It's a Salary Cap casualty. 

He tore his achilles in the post-season. He's not going to play this year. He makes a lot of money.

Most of the NFL is going to watch him rehab from the sidelines I think - he can't help anyone this year.

No he hasn't. He didn't meet expectations his first couple of seasons and then did improve but he's been Top 15, perhaps Top 10 at best. Consistent before the injury but who knows after, so I'd look elsewhere.

Soooooo.....we don't want a top 10-15 LT???? I am confused here.

I could understand maybe the injury history or money but not really the performance. Have you been a Panthers fan long? Do I need to list the LT's in the past 10+ years we have fielded???

Been a fan since '95 and I live in KC so have experienced Fisher's career firsthand as well, so I totally get it. For the money Fisher's position commands, his rep/name recognition vs. actual performance (average to slightly above at best), and the Achilles injury no, it wouldn't be a good expenditure IMO.

Based on the injury, I can understand. Depending on the price, I can understand. I don't really understand the performance part, however. Remember the dudes we have been fielding here recently. Let me ask you this, better or worse than Russell Okung?

I'd love to have consistent average-or-better LT play, but not at above-average money with Fisher's unknowns. That's all I'm saying.

Hence why I said dependent on price. And, I do realize that with that injury this is all a theoretical discussion anyway. He may never play another game in the NFL.
