Blake Fisher RT

However, I do not believe that Fisher needs to develop as a long term answer at RT.  He has not played guard even at the collegiate level. He has 25 starts at Notre Dame and everyone of them came at the RT position. He also has taken meaningful RT snaps in both gap and zone formations so he is well versed in that respect as well. 


I do not think you are considering the depth of this OT class as to why he is projecting to be drafted as late as he is being drafted. There is also the fact that he plays as refined as he does while only being a redshirt sophomore. I have to disagree that he should start inside at guard and I actually believe it would be counterproductive to his development.


He may not be able to start anywhere right away. He would have to beat out Volson to start at Guard or maybe Volson gets injured.

If they throw him in at RT then he will have to go up against TJ Watt & Myles Garrett twice per year plus other top Defensive Ends.

It is not uncommon for Tackles to get playing time at Guard as part of their development.

He may not even start at Guard but just get some playing time there due to injury or game circumstances etc.

None of this is a knock on Fisher.

If he is a refined, ready to start RT prospect then he will likely go higher than round 3 or 4 even with the deep Tackle class.

Teams need offensive linemen and Fisher may get Drafted higher then get into a starting lineup quickly or be more developmental.

A lot will depend on who the other right tackles & guards are on the Team he goes to and how healthy they stay as the season goes on..
