Scout on 2013 draft "It was a disaster, everyone thought Fisher would be good"
Peter King had a nice breakdown of the 2013 draft in his most recent MMQB article. He also makes an argument that maybe Pioli wasn't so bad.

It's ok, you can still hate him for being the turd he is. Doesn't mean you can't give a little credit when he made a great pick. |

Remember when the Chiefs used to be able to plug and play on the OL? When whoever they drafted was more or less gold? Me either.

IMO, picking Houston in the third had less to do with Pioli's talent evaluation skills and more to do with the fact he took a chance on Houston with the extra third-rounder he picked up in the Baldwin trade. |

Pioli was unadulterated garbage.
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while. |

You guys are still completely missing my point. What does that say about every other GM in the league if Pioli gets no credit for drafting Houston?

It's debatable if there is even ONE player in the top 15 of that draft who would be in the top 15 any other year.
But like the scout quoted says, sometimes the entire league has the same read on a player, and sometimes the entire league is wrong. |

Fat Scott gets credit for Poe and Stephenson, that's it. Berry, Houston, Bailey, where all highly scouted talents coming out of a college, even a monkey could have picked those guys.

The next tackle, Lane Johnson (Phi #4 overall) already tested positive for PEDS and was suspended. This week he described his own play thus far this season as "pathetic". The next one, DJ Fluker (SD #11), has been moved to guard. The first tackle in the 2013 draft that seems to have worked out is the 5th one Justin Pugh (NYG, #19), and he was considered undersized in the run-up. There's no way you could have taken someone like that at #1. There's some randomness to the draft that can't really be controlled. |

According to Reid, Fisher is on track to start week 3. Jah Reid did not beat him out of a job. Peter king is full of shit. And it's amazing he's calling a pass rusher, a nose tackle, a safety and a few middling starters the guts of the franchise when the team lacked the heart, which I'd a QB and coaching staff.
