I don't think taking Dorsett was necessarily the issue itself. I was screaming for KC to draft that kid. I envisioned Dorsett being the weapon here that Hill has become. Same type of blazing speed. Problem is, the coaching staff in Indy has no ****ing clue how to use him. That's not Grigson's fault.
Grigson also drafted quite a few O-Lineman. In fact, the only draft he didn't was the one he took Dorsett in. He spent premium picks on those guys too, 1st to 4th rounders. Effort was there, results were not.
He had the unenviable task when he arrived of having to fix the whole thing. That defense was 100% depleted or old as **** and they never had an O-line worth a shit the entire time Manning played there because he masked it. The receivers were old too and they had no running back. Grigson tried to do it, but too many picks failed to produce.
Grigson may have drafted the wrong guys, absolutely would agree with that. However, I think as least as much of the failure needs to be pinned on their shitty head coach and that staff.
