Eric Fisher is leaner and stronger
Chiefs' Eric Fisher took up boxing and shed 20-30 pounds of body fat
By Joel Thorman  @JoelThorman on Apr 28, 2015, 4:38p 9

The issue with Eric Fisher going into the 2014 season was his strength. He had offseason shoulder surgery after the 2013 season which prevented him from lifting weights to put on strength. It was something everyone saw coming and it was an issue at times last season.

It's great news then to hear that Fisher says he shed 20-30 pounds of body fat but was able to keep his weight up heading into his third NFL season.

"I weighed in this morning at 314," Fisher said, via quotes from the Chiefs. "Honestly, I cut like 20, 30 pounds of body fat. I'm feeling really good. I think I'm in the best shape I've ever been in in my life, especially at that weight.
Last year, not being able to work out and do the things I wanted to do for six months. It probably wasn't the best weight I put on last year. I did get up there into the teens, but this year I'm feeling really good. My body is feeling good, mind is feeling good, and I am ready to go."

I usually make a joke about someone saying they're "in the best shape of my life" but that's actually important for Fisher. "Feeling good and ready to go" was a theme throughout his press conference. One of the ways he stayed in shape is through boxing, which he picked up while working out in Michigan this offseason.

"I've really never boxed before," Fisher said, "but I know my punch is one of the things I really needed to develop this offseason. And I knew going into the offseason that it was something I wanted to do and get in to. I couldn't believe the workout you can get from boxing - the hand work and the hand quickness. I really think that brought me a long way. I've been keeping it going here in KC. We have a couple heavy bags out there on the turf field. I brought my gloves back with me and sticking at it."

Fisher's probably not squaring up with Floyd Mayweather anytime soon but a 6'7, 314-pound boxer? Got damn! That's gotta be intimidating for whoever went up against him.

This is year three for Fisher, which is a big one. He'll have two years under his belt and a full offseason to work on his technique and get stronger. If he's going to turn the corner, this will be the year.

Some of you guys act as if he'd be out of the league if he was cut tomorrow, yet nothing could be further from the truth. He improved over the course of last season and with proper diet, exercise and the reps he's received this offseason, he should continue to ascend.

He improved significantly. And if anyone was actually watching objectively they'd have seen that well before PFF had to tell them that. I don't take PFF as an end all, be all at all, but the improvement is quite stark and definitely corresponds with what I watched when I was willing to watch with an open mind instead of just chasing Clay around trying to earn rep from the rest of the caterwauling asswipes.

Fishers a bust.

O line sucks.

Smith sucks.

Receivers are unproven.

D lines got questions.

So do the backers.

Secondary isn't as good as advertised.

Rookie class is iffy.

Last years is even worse.

Reids playcalling is dogshit.

It all begs the question... why is anyone even still here, whats the ****ing point, why bother?

Middle school mentality.

It's not cool to care about something when you're 13 so you shit on anybody that dares utter some degree of optimism. That's what 1/2 the brainless cabal here does. They know that they can hide behind the elation that comes with success if they're proven wrong.

It's essentially an unassailable position that played well back before your balls dropped.

He never really improved as a RT.

At LT he DID improve.

It's pretty obvious that LT is his natural position and that he plays better on the left side. Those people saying we should move him to right are blind.

Remember that all of Fisher's PFF ratings and sacks/pressures allowed should be viewed through this prism: the Chiefs were 28th in pass attempts.

If they ever hope to actually, you know, be a real NFL team in 2015, he's going to have to make an astronomical improvement, not just a small one. Because we want this team throwing more. A lot more.

What's hilarious that I recall seeing a mock draft from that gaseous windbag, Rob Rang, at CBS Sports saying that the Chiefs should take Ereck Flowers at #18 so they could move Eric Fisher to his "natural position of right tackle".

Anyone got the pass blocking efficiency ranking for Fisher in 2014? I canceled my PFF sub long ago.

I really hope this shit is not merely wishful thinking....holy mother of the NFL football goddess, Eric you do NOT want to be the next Trazelle Jenkins, or worse...Tony Mandarich or Robert Gallery. Please, please, please...do NOT join that list...

Jenkins never started an NFL game and only appeared in nine. He's no Trazelle Jenkins.

Mandarich was overhyped by John Madden. If he had gone in the second round, no one would have faulted him for his career, which actually took an upturn in Indy and he played well. Gallery was overhyped as a tackle but was a fine guard.

Eric Fisher's upside is Joe Staley, the 49er's left tackle who's also from Central Michigan and struggled his first two seasons before going on to multiple Pro Bowls. His downside is a backup and spot left tackle.

Personally, I think he'll be fine this season and beyond.
