I would imagine Dorsey will start lining up his staff of college scouts, cap guy, director of pro personnel/college scouting over the next 2-3 weeks.

Some guys may stay, but not many.

[mcaj22]

he is the Not Josh Looney role

Considering most guys were ***** yes men, I'd assume most won't be staying.

I wonder if Heckert comes in in a lesser role.

1. No way we are that lucky.
2. Maybe after he doesnt get a GM job takes Football ops or pro personnel job as a fall back?

Be a great get if it happens.

Awesome move. This has been a pretty darn good offseason so far - let's just hope that we kill the draft and our new coordinators exceed our expectations.

[Ultra Peanut]

Awesome night.

I hope Dorsey walks in to the room of scouts. Pulls the pin from the grenade and walks back out

[milkman]

I don't know if these are the best hires (I do like Dorsey a lot, still lukewarm at best with Reid), but I am pretty happy that we are getting things together so quickly.

[O.city]

So this will be an evaluation year? I'm confused?

A possible Dorsey crash course for us not in the know, please.

Rotoworld's take on it:

http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/1354/chiefs-offense

"Chiefs hired John Dorsey as general manager.
For the third straight offseason, the Packers are losing GM Ted Thompson's right-hand man after Reggie McKenzie took the Raiders' GM job in 2012 and John Schneider became Seattle's GM in 2011. Dorsey will enter a situation more like Schneider's, beginning as second fiddle to powerful coach Andy Reid with a role likely to increase as the years go on. Dorsey has spent 22 years in player personnel. He was Green Bay's Director of Football Operations in 2012

Why? Our scouts weren't the problem. The scouts' job is to follow *****'s playbook. This would be the same stupid mistake we made when ***** arrogantly chose to ignore Peterson's scouts for the 2009 draft.
