Draft Rewind 2013 – Eric Fisher – Kansas City Chiefs

What Ourlads NFL Scouting Services said about ERIC FISHER: Central Michigan, 6072 305 5.05. Three-year starter. An angular athletic ascending left tackle prospect with big hands and long arms. Has the physical tools to be a top level performer on the next level. Physical, focused, and competitive. Toyed with pass rushers in the regular season, but stepped up in the Senior Bowl. An explosive natural knee bender with good leg drive and strength to control defender. Good body control with the ability to recover against a two move pass rusher. Solid punch and use of hands. Mentally tough and consistent in his play. Stays square in pass protection. Mobile enough to fold around and block linebackers. Had some dominating one-on-one performances in the Senior Bowl. Plays with a strong two-arm extension. Maintains balance and good use of hands. Must work to bend against small and undersized edge pass rushers. Could finish his blocks better at times. Can play in any scheme. A first year starter with the talent and compete to provide impact play. Close call between Fisher and Joeckel as the top tackle in the draft. Fisher is more athletic, but Joeckel played against better competition. OSR:3/49. Top 5 pick. (A-34 1/2, H-10 3/8, BP-27, 10-1.74). CAMP NOTES: The draft’s first pick, Eric Fisher, drew positive comments during mini camp and OTAs, despite his position move to right tackle. Branden Albert will man the left tackle position in 2013. Fisher impressed the coaches by his quick study and field application of his technique. His work ethic and desire to learn was top notch. The athletic tackle prospect has long arms and big hands along with the physical tools to be a top level performer on Sundays. Physical, focused, and competitive, he is a natural knee bender with good leg drive and strength to control defenders.
