Fury knows he is a BAMF. He knows how hard he's had a time picking out quality recruits or getting loaners.
He looks at Steve seeing with a modern lens, makes some further misestimations because Steve is from the past, and completely forgets
Steve simply walked into Mordor, grabbed the ring and with 400+ POWs returned through enemy territory.
And yes, Fury probably even with Project Insight waterlogged in the Potomac doesn't get that Steve is all that and a plate of oysters. If he'd had to, he'd have gone off with little more than a sharp shell.
