Dorsey's initial quick explosive burst at the snap while at LSU was as disruptive as any D-Lineman in college in the last ten years. If he still had that burst, he'd be ideal as a 1-gap nose. But he doesn't, so it's a lost dream.

Are those skills gone due to injury, or have they just been numbed after 3 years of being coached that his responsibility is to hold his ground and let the guys behind him make the play? I think if he gets a year to play in our new scheme, he will start to show very promising signs by years end.
If we are moving to a 1gap system, as has been reported, and the staff says they'd like to bring Dorsey back...they obviously think he can be effective in it. |

It's because his speed, quickness, athleticism and get off were wasted. If we can get Glenn back on a "show me" short term deal, it could be an extremely high reward and low risk. I doubt anyone else is willing to offer him a substantial contract at this point...it's worth the risk. |

If you want to keep him as a 1 down player on a vet min contract to hold up against the run on 2nd down (the majority of teams throw on 1st down IIRC), that's fine. To expect him to turn into a hand-fighting, explosive, pressure machine from the 0/1 tech is entirely different. |

I can't believe there are still dumbasses who don't understand what a 2 gap DL is instructed to do, much less that Dorsey did exactly as he was instructed to very, very well.

I thought we fired this moron after he traded away our entire draft for Alex Smith?

Heard that Dorsey was gonna retire "to spend more time with his family and finally get his degree."

I don't know why he would re-sign here for cheap...didn't he void a year of his deal? I saw that we have 3.5 million in dead money this year from him...I figured that was due to a void.
