I'd like to know his definition of "impact player".

Mr. Laz 04-24-2015 05:06 PM

he must be thinking that 'impact' equals getting in some games their 1st year

i dont buy the trade down idea at THIS point

look at our roster, we're fairly deep in all positions. (meaning that a 4th, or 5th round player is going to have a hard time making the roster at nearly any position)

we need some playmakers at the top of the draft, though

I bet one of the players is from a nearby state........

Wide Receiver and Inside Linebacker are hardly deep positions. A case could easily be made for OLB, safety, swing tackle, center and even running back. After Charles & Davis, the cupboard's bare, IMO.

Someone who has a big impact......i guess :roll eyes:

How many impact players has Dorsey drafted so far? I'd say 1....Kelce. I would consider Kelce an impact player. Everybody else verdict is still out. :hmmm: If Fisher becomes a great left tackle then he is an impact player, even if it took some time....i guess, no?

I don't really see the controversy?

History has shown he's right. That's pretty typical for most drafts

10-12 impact
A whole lot of solid to mediocre players
A whole lot of busts

Just depends on how u want to define "impact player"

Not when you have tes like the Jets, Faiders, Browns, etc picking before you. Chances of those teams NOT getting an impact player are pretty high.

If my GM feels that there are only 10-12 impact players in a draft, they haven't done their ****ing work, unless Dorsey is envisioning that there will be 10-12 impact players available when they pick each round with each pick.

****ing Dorsey.

He's not THAT good.

Not when Tre McBride is still on the board and they are damn near identical in every single facet of the game.

Possibly, if he wasn't a walking injury.

RealSNR 04-24-2015 06:23 PM

I think people in general are just like, "**** it, we really need a WR, so draft one in the 1st round!"

There are far better players to be had than Phillip Dorsett or DGB at 18. Sorry folks, but it's true.

Dunerdr 04-24-2015 06:39 PM

His whole speech seemed like he was just talking about round one. He said there will be 32 players drafted. Maybe 10-12 first round impact guys.
