very versatile LT at Oregon that had great feet. He was projected earlier than we got him in tons of mock drafts. In his first
year Fisher was moved all over the damn place, LT, RT, frickin FB...

Dawson was great in college, the coaches said he didn't practice well and didn't play him. Some players just need to go out
on the field and play football. The coaches might of hindered him and Haslett has been a shitty LB'er coach to say the least.

Billings is coming off an ACL tear similar to Geno's when he didn't play well the year after.

Your point about there is a reason a player gets drafted where he does is proven every year to be false.

There is a reason Tom Brady was drafted in the 6th round man and Burfict went undrafted.

At some point coaches need to be able to coach players up. 

Sounds like a lot of excuses for poor coaching to me...


Yeah, no more girly piano playing O-lineman, had enough of this shit. Rock On 
The point I was trying to make on later round picks is that statically speaking they have a far less chance of panning out the later you get into the draft  vs higher draft picks.  Usually their slotted in later rounds do to physical limitations or flaws in their game that will get exposed at the next level. Sure the experts are wrong on some players but the chances you draft Tom Brady or Geno Akitns in those rounds are very slim. Also Burfict went undrafted for characters issues so you can't really compare it to why Westerman fell.  Andrew Billings had a meniscus tear on one of the first days of camp last year not even comparable to an ACL tear, plus we already knew Geno could play pre injury the jury is still out on Billings.  I'll give Fisher somewhat of a pass but he still had 2 years in the system going into his 2nd year to win the RT job that year.   Ogbuehi  and Fisher cried about being moved around the line to as part of their struggles, Ced said playing RT " wasn't his natural position" then he sucked at LT.  Personally I think their both mentally weak. Your a pro you need to be versatile stop making excuses and make plays.  I'll give Fisher a pass for year 3 but not year 2 unless the medical issue hinder him that year as well. Maybe it's the coaches or our system that Westemen dosen't fit. I don't know just bringing up the possibility that maybe he isn't good. Either way ill agree with you that i'm done with Marvin and Piano man.
