the kansas city chiefs

they are...not happy with dorsey this year

*ETA: this year. other LSU DL have had a tough go of it lately. wroten, spears, lavalais (his was more effort and age tho). the only guy who hasn't been a disapointment is kyle williams

The Chiefs? Haven't they pretty much sucked for the last decade or more. I'm sure they ar looking for a lot of excuses, like who's the dumbarse that drafted Broyle and the dumbarse that kept him.

the problem is that LSU DL are getting called out for being taught shitty technique, and THAT may make him fall


The MVP of the National Championship? You're a Joke. Go back to your Clown board.

the worst bust is being thrown around early and often with regards to dorsey

he was supposed to be warren sapp and he's playing the position that sapp played. just as a comparison of his hype

We had another JUCO DT guy that went high in the draft not long ago?


He was not JUCO it was MHill that was 6'6" DT

no wroten = JUCO DT

Hill = Tall DL (he played DE, not DT)

i think chris long was more highly regarded (not that he's been less of a bust this year) by many

I've watched him and he's definitely NOT being "thrown around".

He's a rookie and there's still 7 games left. Let's see what happens before we start calling him a bust. Mario Williams didn't exactly have a wonderful rookie season...

other than missing what i said completely, many would disagree

DT is an easier transition than DE, the texans fricked up in how they used williams, and williams is a much, much better athlete than spears is. they simplified things for him and he took off

nobody is a bust after 1 year, but i will say i was happy to see him go to the chiefs (b/c my friend is a huge chiefs fan and i watch a lot of their games with him), but i haven't really seen much out of dorsey this year. ellis definitely looked better before he got hurt

Any they'd be wrong. He's not getting thrown around at all, he's not dominanting either, but he's not being tossed around. I've seen him 2-3 games this year.

That's debatable. Especially depending on the player himself and the scheme they are going into and coming from.
