I agree with your Berry comment. More have to realize that these players are being compensated for more than what we just see on Sundays. I view Sorenson as a very dependable, consistent player with a huge versatility plus. Not a lot of players can do what he can, as well as he can.
But, Sorenson can not actually play in the box.

He's a liability in that role.

They played him there last season out of necessity due to injury, not out of design. At the very least, he showed them his value was in the defensive backfield at safety, not near the line.

Anyone know why defensive players like Sorensen, Zombo, DeVito, Studebaker, McGraw, Monty Beisel, Kawika Mitchell, Fujita, Mazlowski, Boomer Grigsby, Rich Scanlon, etc etc etc are always overrated on ChiefsPlanet? (and those are just the ones who make the team...)

Sorenson is 1000x better than. The rest of those guys. Not even close

^ This.

The perverbial "yeoman's service".

I think the draft will feature a lot of front 7 picks. Many questions at both ILB/OLB along with the NT position.
Believe it or not, I think we may move early on a WR as well. Maclin has to justify his contract this year after a disappointing 2016.

Chiefs signed S Daniel Sorensen to a four-year, $16-million extension through 2020.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports almost half of the deal is guaranteed and another $2 million is available via incentives. It is a good contract for a player who had primarily been a special teamer before taking on a bigger defensive role last season. Sorensen just turned 27.

I like Sorenson, athletic and good in pass coverage

but he is a liability in run defense, misses tackles and gets completely blown out of plays by fullbacks and guards.

I hope he improves in run defense, got absolutely owned by Bell and Co in the playoffs.

CP hated most of those guys anyway outside of one or 2 dingbats (like the Roy's and Scanlon)

Unlike Ron Parker- Sorensen makes big plays. I still don't see what Parker does back there besides give up touchdowns.

Dirty Dan should be worth this contract, glad to have him back.

I'm not sure why anyone would. Hell I appreciate not having to search for it

Shotgun Bang, wassup with that thang!!

I doubt it is going to happen and I don't hate Ron Parker but I wonder if this might be the end for him. We can cut him and save $4.6M in cap space with only $1M in dead money. :shrug:
