That's way too few. We have a shitload of young players/rookies on cheap contracts.

I doubt their draft boards would be the same after this season.

Do you think he'd be a Top 20 pick if they could do the Draft all over again?

New regimes turn over rosters. We won't do it one year, but in three, it will happen.

I agree. Colquitt might make it also.

Keep ****ing doubting Brad Cottam.

Obviously the draft board would change after one season. But some of the players that were under the radar in terms of on the field performance this season will be pro-bowlers and even HOFers in the future. So after the top rookies that made an impact, who would be at the top of the board?

If the draft was done over, would Flowers be drafted before Dorsey? I'm not sure. Flowers had a better season, but I think Dorsey still has a higher top end in terms of potential, and plays a more valued position in the current NFL.

Yeah, let's trade Dorsey in his second season. Unbelievable.

Sure. Punters and kickers are an after thought to me. You have to have them, other wise you wouldn't.

So if Pioli and the coaches are 1) dead set on going to a 3-4 and 2) they determine that Dorsey isn't suited for it, what is your suggestion? That's all I'm speculating about. Both 1) and 2) are definitely possibilities. My question says nothing about Dorsey being a bust. He could still be a pro-bowl DT in a 4-3, but that does us no good if we go to a 3-4.

So someone explain to me what the good skills of a good NT are in the NFL and why Dorsey might not be able to transition to it.

How do you draft a guy at #5, give him $23m guaranteed and then change to a scheme he doesn't fit in? You just can't. Unless someone is willing to give you a top 5 pick for him in this draft, which is unlikely considering his performance this year.

Glenn Dorsey is the future of Kansas City Chiefs football. At least until Stafford/Sanchez get drafted.

Mr. Flopnuts 01-13-2009 10:05 PM

Personally, I still think Dorsey was the best player to come out of that draft. Let's see who's doing what 3 years from now.

The 3-4 right now can't work ... We don't have the horses on the Dline or the speed and toughness at Lbacker ..

To light to play NT in a 3-4. Dan Saleamua was a good 3-4 NT

Disagree...in fact I think Hali would make a better OLB in a 3-4 than a DE in a 4-3
