If Reid wanted Dorsey to stay...he would still be in KC.

Absolutely. Andy Reid was negotiating a contract with Hunt at the time. All Andy Reid had to do was tell Hunt that he wanted Dorsey to stay and it would have been done. No way Hunt loses both Reid and Dorsey.

We will never know, but I think that Andy Reid was ok with Dorsey being fired. Reid might have even voiced displeasure with the way Dorsey did his job which would have increased the chances of Hunt deciding to fire Dorsey. Maybe Reid was so pissed about Dorsey cutting Maclin that he told Hunt that he wouldn't agree to a new contract unless Dorsey was gone. That would certainly fit with why Reid signed on the same day as Dorsey was fired.

Reid had all the leverage and Dorsey is gone, end of story.

And some shit definitely went down...The wanting too much money..or the GB out clause doesn't fit the unprecedented timing of his firing nor letting his replacement walk in the process.

This is contrary to every report published by national and local reporters.

Everything isn't a conspiracy.

You might as well tell him the sky isn't blue.

KC had a guy, who's job was to manage the salary cap. They knew exactly how much money they had available.

No one has had a reasonable explanation of why signing Logan to an $8 million, nearly fully guaranteed contract, made financial sense? They knew they were going to have to cut someone to get under the cap to compensate...and Maclin's contract allowed for it.

I'm wondering if Reid was out of the loop on the actual team finances...and Dorsey took the fact that they were OK with shopping Maclin as him being ultimately expendable. Was Reid made aware they were planning on cutting him to make the cap?

Yes..this is just a theory but the Logan thing doesn't add up.

Wrong.

Andy Reid's agent was negotiating the contract.

JFC.
