I wish lol. The bigger goof is Donald Stephenson over Russel Wilson by 1 draft spot. And then Jeff Allen ahead of Alshon Jeffrey by one pick.

You're an idiot.
Dorsey was a no brainer pick. Flacco wasn't good in the playoffs early on. He's been excellent the last few years. Flacco is a much better player than Dorsey. But I guess captain hindsight comes along to call people idiots. Good work. |

You can't evaluate this stuff without looking at the fact that Flacco was drafted #18 overall, which means half the other teams in the league liked another player more, too.

Or maybe didn't have a need at QB? Rookie QB's got paid a shit more back then to so teams were less likely to pull the trigger on one.

Still wondering whatever became of PastorMikH? Should we file him away in Mr Blonde's file also?
Correction: He's still around. He last visited on 12-7-14 Apparently he just doesn't post. ![]()

Thats just the Chiefs being the Chiefs. Its sad that we waste so many players careers for nothing. They have to leave to have success. Damned shame.
No QB you dont have shit. |

The Saints wanted to trade us their first round pick in 2009 to move up 2 spots. We could have gotten Flacco in 2008 then picked up Maclin or Harvin in 2009 with the extra pick.

There were reasons not to take Dorsey. But he was a consensus top 10 pick and most people easily had him slotted at top 5. If not Dorsey, Ellis, Clady, and McKelvin were high on everyone's boards. Of course in hindsight, I'd take Flacco over all those guys. But hindsight is 20/20.

Exactly. The 'I told you so' attitude doesn't work here. I don't think anybody had flacco slotted this high given the talent in this draft.

Glenn Dorsey was the consensus best player in the draft if not factoring in positional value. It's revisionist history to tear him down now. Dorsey the player is not Dorsey the prospect.

I saw him play in college a bit. He looked ridiculously good. I was actually worried when KC drafted him because he looked like he was going to tear shit up in the NFL.
