Fisher?
#40
Ogbuehi and Fisher are not the same player. Ogbuehi was drafted to be the left tackle of the future.
The idea that they should have retained Andre Smith because both Ogbuehi and Fisher are now injured is not really practical. Smith was OK, but his time had come to an end, unless he was going to sign a 1-year deal for the veteran minimum. Obviously he got more than that from Zimmer, which is a deal he should have taken. Both parties were ready to move on though.
And yes, find the fourth or fifth OT on any team and you're looking at guys who aren't that "good." They're in that position for a reason and they're often going to be low paid. Again, for a reason. I guess I buy the the fact that because Ogbuehi was moved up to starter they could have looked for a "better" fourth tackle option than Winston ... but at some point you need to find out if other, young guys, can play or maybe develop into something. But let's face it -- any team that loses a second or third tackle are going to be in a tough spot.
