We don't know enough about Higbee run blocking or in pass pro. We may get a better sense over the next two or three weeks. I imagine Fisher knows now
If he's a liability there maybe he should only play in specific packages?
I think the hiring of Grohl is a clear indication of what Fisher values...but he still has to be practical and it doesn't mean If Higbee isn't ready for certain packages now that he doesn't evolve as the season progresses

I'm going to be very interested to see how this plays out.
I think most agree that Fisher wants to establish the line of scrimmage and run first.
If that is indeed true, doesn't that mean Kendricks starts?
Will Higbee's receiving prowess usurp Kendricks ability to block in the run game?
I'm comfortable saying after only one game that Higbee is a better receiver than Kendricks.
I think most agree with that, but is he a liability in the run game?
I think if Higbee is not the starting tight end game one, its a good indicator of what Fisher values most.
DO you see it differently?
