Notre Dame guy. I'm guessing there are ties to a pedophilia ring. Just a hunch.

Oh and great use of that third Dorse! Dude had to have some major issues beyond being a slow learner/bad fit.

I don't know this at all but are NFL team required to carry 53 guys on their roster? Is there a time limit on how long they can be under the 53?

It just takes most more time to admit the wasted pick and move on.

This. Moves like this are an indicator of a strong organization.

Yeah, I'm calling bullshit there - considering we have three players whose primary role is the same. Hill, Davis, Thomas.

Jesus, if there was EVER a guy to have given up on, it would be Thomas.

Or Davis.

DAT has at least fifth round trade value. We let him go and he will be signed quickly. He's great for depth for his skill position

We have young athletic guys at CB. I think Andy kept DAT for depth. We lost all of our athletic WR's by the Pats game and were left with Avant and Hammond.

Have to believe that Dorsey still thinks there's market for either Davis or Thomas.

At the end of the day, though, other issues notwithstanding, I'd rather see DAT on the field than Wilson.

Wilson is garbage.

I know.

I'm shocked tbh.

Maybe they're sold on Gaines, Nelson and White? And figured Russell won't be as good as those guys?

At least Davis suits up and contributes. Thomas was a healthy scratch ... again.

Yeah I did.

I saw him bat down a pass at the los. I thought it was a good play by him.

DAT and Tyreek are going to be useful in our game with Pitt who is notoriously bad at defending the screens and slants

That was my first thought.

Gave up on this guy quick so something went horribly wrong. :(

Yes, this. There had to be some huge character blowup behind the scenes... whether it was some illegal issue unrelated to the Chiefs FO/coaching, or otherwise.

:eek:

Well, I guess the "litmus" will be as to how long he goes unclaimed. If he goes to another team and is a solid contributor a month from now we can say Dorsey screwed the pooch here.

Interesting draft, as we've already cut 2 of our first 6 picks.

We're going to see more and more of this moving forward, as the Chiefs will have more draft picks than spots available due to the quality of the roster.
