That's a good point. It's hard for me to make that call offhand. Sims and Blackledge were certainly disappointments, but they at least started. I think Jenkins played in one game or so, and was gone after two years. That's amazingly bad for a first-round pick. But it does make a difference that he was barely a first-rounder compared to those guys.
I wouldn't put Dorsey in with those other guys, though. He hasn't been spectacular, but he's captured and held a starting job, which those other guys never did. Or at least, I don't remember Ryan Sims winning a starting job. Did he? All I remember about him is his interception when Greg Robinson had him 15 yards downfield in coverage one time. Sigh.
