One of the biggest knocks on Fisher in college was that he was a penalty machine. If he couldn't hold his water vs the defenses of the Pac whatever, then he's going to have a tough road vs the stunting 3-4 units in the AFC North.
I won't lie, I still hate the double OT picks. They do little for the team in 2015, which bothers the hell out of me. Aside from that, I just don't like the 2 players all that much. I don't see either as a capable LT. Ogbuehi did poorly when moved to the left side in college. My issue with Fisher is the aforementioned false starting. Fisher seems like a player that will at best be capable, but never really very good.
People look at them as replacements for Whit and Dre as if the transition will be seamless just because the team went out and grabbed two high picks to put in their places. Andre's health issues aside, you're talking about replacing arguably the best OT tandem in the league. These two have a long way to go before they're anywhere close to that. Regardless of where they were picked or how bold of a move it was, they still have to prove out on the field.
In a couple of years, when we see what they have in these two, I think there will be a lot of very disappointed Bengal fans.
