I have seen good pass protection from Fisher in the past but i still stand by that Fisher has always been more of a LT
then RT in my eyes. Would rather have a mauling type like Redmond or Perkins there. Perkins actually played well in
the one chance he got at RT against the Ravens. Went right down the field and scored a TD with him there.
People throwing out the notion of Redmond, Perkins or Taylor at RT i think are undervaluing what Pollack has been
saying. No one is given a starting position, no one. The best players will start.
Perhaps the very notion of the open competition will bring out the best in everyone. I mean, there are as many as five guys competing for that RT spot and not one of them has a contract beyond next year (at least I don't think they do).
I am really pulling for Redmond. At just 23 years old, he hasn't even reached his physical peak. And I am sure that everyone will hurl insults at this, but I remember reading that he left college early largely because he needed money to help raise his daughter. Man, I can't wait for the preseason games. Everyone else hates them, but I love watching battles like what we have at RT compete.
