Chiefs Dorsey in the 3-4. - Page 3

Direckshun · 01-13-2009, 06:35 PM

Is it even remotely possible?

A couple speculations out there are that Pioli wants to gravitate towards the 3-4 with our defense.

I think whatever determinations you make about our defense have to be tied into what Dorsey, by far our most expensive defensive player (Surtain about to be released), is capable of.

I think it's pretty clear Dorsey's not NT material, but might he get by as a 3-4 DE?

What are your thoughts?

There are already more teams trying to run the 3-4 than there is personnel in the league that is well suited to run the 3-4, why compound our problems?

dorsey will be a beast in a few years. to say bust right now is purely asinine.

I didn't say he was a bust, I said he sucked.

No it's not. A lot of players suck in their rookie years and go on and have good careers.

DaWolf · 01-13-2009, 07:46 PM

Let's convert him to a fullback...

pioli can do whatever the hell he wants. the KC defense has sucked at the
4-3 for sometime now. change to the 3-4 and suit #72's fat ass up

sparkky · 01-13-2009, 08:00 PM

there will most likely be the old " roster turn-over" thing in the next couple of years so what personnel we have now is only so relevant.

Dorsey is way too short to be a 3-4 end.

Gun made his own bed. Time to go.

I wouldn't call any player a bust after just 1 year. Dorsey did not have a good year. Period.

I also wouldn't say we should avoid doing (possibly) what our new HC and GM want to do because we have a first round pick who hasn't proven anything yet.

That's actually not true, all of the undersized pass rushers in the college game are why teams have switched...

I wouldn't let a single player other than perhaps a franchise QB affect how the team should be built. If Dorsey doesn't fit into Pioli's plan then trade him.

I'll agree with everything you've said here.

So what's his trade value? Could we get a late first rounder for him?
