Come on folks. Way too early to call him a bust. It's rare that a defensive tackle has a great first year. Biggest reason? Most of them got by in college with strong legs and OK upper body strength. When they get to the NFL, they are going against the best every Sunday. The strong legs aren't enough. The upper body strength has to be there, too. Dorsey doesn't have that yet. Watch closely. He doesn't have that upper body to stand an offensive lineman up and push him around. Give him the offseason building the upper body. You'll see a big difference next year.

I still think Dorsey can become a dominant DT, he just needs a supporting cast. If they would have been smart, they would have used him and Boone as the DTs, with Tank subbing in, but they thought using a slow-ass DT for a DE was the solution for a pass-rush. I also think Boone could have help guide Dorsey. Our managment of players is awful.

Wasn't it Jerry Glanville that said it would take a natural disaster (or something like that) before he would play Bret Favre? I'm also pretty sure Favres first couple of passes in the NFL were INTS returned for TD's.
The point is, you can not call someone a bust during their initial season. |

yeah. Redbull's had one too many and he's all Caffeine hyped up.... and not really seeing what it takes to succeed in NFL. In a couple years of Ryan Simm like result..... it might be safe to say bust.

the dude is thick...have you ever seen him...? the guy just won a NC and cried when a 4-12 team picked him...if that's not the kind of player you want, then i don't know what to tell you. He's gonna be a beast..
problem is..in college, it prolly didn't take much for him to dominate..but he's with the big boys now...a couple of years in the weight room...plus he doesn't give up on plays...he pursues runners and makes tackles...what kind of year do you think he would have if JA was lining up next to him? you're just gonna have to be patient. or not. |

Dorsey is playing the most physical position on the field. He's going up against big, big grown ass men. You can't expect a 23 year old to manhandle 28-32 year olds. He's going up against pro bowlers like Alan Faneca, Logan Mankins, and Kris Dielman. Give him time to grow!

If your DT is 20 yards downfield you have some pretty big problems.

I think Dorsey will be great when he grows into the role a bit. I would love to have a nice 340 lb run stuffer lining up beside him though.

You lost all credibility right there when you said Fatlock is right. If you actually agree with a shit stirring untalented fatass piece of shit like Fatlock, then I agree with the statement that your Thread starting privileges should be revoked. I frankly don't understand how that man keeps his job. I, for one, refuse to read his crap. If I see his crap posted here, I immediately use the ignore thread feature, because, frankly, his crap is a waste of bandwidth. I would rather pay $99 a year to read Nick "The Erroneous One" Athan drivel, than read that dumbasses shit for free.

Yeah, I missed that. I thought it was less his rookie year, my bad.
