Congratz Dorsey, you suck.

The Chiefs likely could have gotten Gaines in Round 4 (as he was rated a Round 5 guy by many) or traded up to get him if necessary... but the better move would have been drafting Kelvin Benjamin or Jordan Matthews instead of waste-of-sperm Dee Ford in round 1.

Bottom line... they had two picks with which they could have addressed the most glaring need on the team, but did not. That's a major failing.

Idk man Gaines was one of the best players at the combine. He had the 2nd best 3 cone of any DB and was top 5. With his long arms and confidence, I couldn't see him lasting to round 4.

I think you will see Dee Ford's value next season. Tamba looks slower and is wearing down. He can't last late in the season anymore. The guy will be lucky to get 8 sacks. I just don't see how we bring him back.
Ford has time to learn the game and go through his technique while getting even stronger.
Dorsey drafted this guy rd 1. He has the benefit of having the best Paas rusher taking all the attention as well as a very nice pass rushing DL.

$9 million is too much for an old worn down Tamba. Love the guy but it's time.
