Don't forget about Jake Fisher

I'm not sure there is a tackle in this draft that is a better prospect than Jake Fisher. Before going down with A-fib Jake was having a mediocre season at RT (55 of 83) but he was learning. One must also wonder did his heart condition affect his play. He did say he had to get treated for a "supersonic" heart rate in an early season workout.

I for one am willing to give Jake first crack at RT (who knows what Pollack can do for him Doug Free was garbage at RT before Pollack got a hold of him) and focus on the interior of our oline.

Great point about Pollack and Doug Free.  I will add that Free suddenly became a much better player when he had a solid guard next to him as well as a dominant center.  Jake is our starting RT until someone beats him out of the job, and he is just turning 25 tomorrow (Happy Birthday!).  A lot of guys don't really have their "NFL sand" until roughly that age.  Hopefully, he fulfills his massive potential and is our rock at RT for years to come.

I also like his demeanor way more than that of Ced the marshmellow.
