It’s just annoying because I’d have full confidence if Fisher were healthy.
This is literally the only reason the Bucs have a chance. Lucky mother****ers. |

If we can somehow get through this next game with a win, this coaching staff deserves a medal for what they have been able to manage out of this line. In many ways they have made chicken salad out of chicken ****.

About the only good thing about KC's OL being a MASH unit most of the year is this isn't anything new. They've played about all of their OL in about every combination possible already and have 2 weeks to game plan and minimize his loss.

He won't be ready until late next year if at all.

Average NFL return timetable is 11 months. I just Googled it for my own information. And up to 1/3 never return but some of that is marginal players or older players that don't want to go through the rehab etc.

Major question in the offseason I am guessing will be Veach's thoughts on how effective of a LT Fish can be post Achilles. If enough doubts are there, it is within the realm of possibility that the Chiefs could cut both tackles in the offseason. It would create major cap space, but major holes as well.

I don’t see how you can hang onto him with the hopes that he can MAYBE return late in the year at that salary. With this already being his last year under contract I think now is possibly the time to go young at tackle. Letting him go clears $12 million in much needed cap room.

You can't go completely young because Niang is essentially a rookie next year. You can't go into the season with two rookie tackles. |

I agree. I think you bring Remmers back, look for a fully healthy Rankin to hopefully compete somewhere, and maybe also find another stopgap option. I think you then look to take a tackle somewhere in the 1-4 range. Personally I'd like to see them trade down from the #32 pick if the opportunity presents itself to accumulate some extra picks.
