So I would bet that Dorsey is smart enough to realize DeVito isn't the best option for him at DE.

DeVito was getting blown by the commentators in the preseason for "working hard to be a three down DE."
My guess is, as always, he will sell Dorsey on that fantasy because getting GMs to admit they were wrong on FAs is like pulling teeth.
Replacing DeVito with Bailey would be the 100% correct move, but it would involve
active moves by the GM on both players, when the GM has his chips pushed in with the wrong one. If Dorsey does nothing (which I fear he will), we're going to get DeVito impotently slapping into OLs on passing downs instead of Bailey's uber-athletic finesse.
But, hey. At least we'd get a compensatory pick.
