He's prototypical in terms of size and has elite athleticism for a LT. That's why he is so beloved by some of the scouting guys.
Matt Miller seems to be the only guy who blindly loves him and refuses to admit he has legit concerns and cracks in his game. He's tied to that Jon Ogden comparison at this point, so he needs Joeckel to succeed or lose some cred.
I'm starting to see a lot of people saying they think Fisher is a safer, better all-around bet, and possibly even a better pass pro guy. He is the same same as Joeckel and has similar athletic ability but is more nasty/proven in the run game.
