After watching our Oline get destroyed without Fisher, you want to let him walk? We need to be adding to and upgrading our offensive line, not going with more scrubs.

Fisher likely won't be back until midseason next year, and even then it's questionable if he'll be back at 100%. It's the last year of his contract and we can save $12 million by letting him go and using that money elsewhere to address the line. I don't see how keeping him on IR/PUP at his salary helps the roster in 2021.

In fairness, I think that post was from August.

Is Eric Fisher some guy that can't be improved on or something? The Chiefs entire line was shuffled around and/or missing. It wasn't just missing Fisher, who has his fair share of issues from time to time and got absolutely embarrassed in last years SB, that was reason for the OL failure.

Another angle is that fisher might be cheaper to extend to a new deal. Two straight years of injury and no longer negotiating a peak deal. Plus you'd have to imagine owners will be very tight fisted this offseason given potential cap changes.

I would be find if the Chiefs decided to upgrade the left tackle position but i doubt they will, so keeping Fisher is probably our best get. We'll be lucky if Andy upgrades the offensive line at all. We don't know if Schwartz is going to be back next year either.

I wonder if Niang felt any regret watching it on the tube.

I know I'm not the only one who's fairly pissed at him for opting out, but it is what it is. Hopefully he will make up for it going forward. I can't help but think there is going to be some animosity from at least some of his teammates going forward for a while, no matter how legitimate his reason for opting out was. LDT and Damien Williams were already here and have fought with the team for a Super Bowl, so I think the team will give them a pass. But Niang is a nobody at this point to his teammates and has earned zero respect to this point until he shows up and earns it. I wouldn't be surprised to see a cold reception from some and an extra dose of rookie hazing.

I'm sure he felt regret from the moment he opted out. And I'm sure he felt regret seeing at how the season progressed and was generally safe for the athletes who participated. And I'm sure he felt regret last night.

Doesn't mean we need to feel differently about the guy. My guess is he feels on some level like he let the team down and he's concerned with how he'll be received.

But, it is what it is. I look forward to his contribution next year and hold no resentment toward him.

and I don't think he was totally healthy when he opted out. We also don't lose a year of his rookie deal...

In RE: to Niang: My alternate theory was he opted out because he wasn't totally healthy, probably wasn't going to play, so he may have been "encouraged" to opt out so that the Chiefs get the benefit of the extra year.

Niang gets to earn his small salary while getting healthy and not having to deal with the rigors of the season, and will still have his full rookie deal (i.e. the total time to actually play v. losing one year for health), Chiefs get their player for the full deal, healthy and ready, and no lost time due to the injury....

Just a theory....
