Hurney scouting dt

why is Dorsey in bad favor with Haley?

The Chiefs moved to a 3-4 defense and Dorsey does not fit as a 3-4 NT. They're trying to move him to end but that won't workout too well and of course Dorsey is probably against it. It's very forced.

One thing that surprised me last year was Dorsey's lack of sacks, forced fumbles, and TFLs. He wasn't very disruptive at all, maybe even less so than Ellis.

We got Harris for a 5th rounder when we were desperate for a safety. I don't necessarily think Hurney is going to overpay just because of our situation. No matter what, there are always options, different players, different teams you can deal with, ect. If one team sees that you are desperate and tries to screw you then you just move on to option B.

I'd love to bring in Dorsey but we don't have the cap space, not even close. Would be great to trade a future 2nd rounder for him and rework his contract to give him 2nd round money (LOL) but the chance of that happening is about zero point zero percent.

Williams looks like a solid option. 4th would be the highest I'd want us to give up. Might be able to get him for a 5th or 6th even. Really wouldn't mind adding him AND Dewayne Robertson. I was hoping we'd add some depth at DT even before Kemo was hurt, so with him out for the year you can make that 2 guys.

Of course, alot depends on our cap space. Haven't seen any official numbers released recently but estimates I've seen have been 2 - 2.5 million.

not entirely true...at least outside of the organization. one of the slick things about that trade was that minter was about to retire but only the team knew. he was at training camp and as far as anyone knew he was going to be playing that year. we were just trading for depth as far as the bears knew.

we don't have that luxury this time.

    • SC won the ACC title the week before in Clemsons own house. Committee was worried about optics over talent. 
    • It's crazy how folks on the huddle can draft better than our highly paid scouts.  I know I saw several mocks with the first 3 selections going Ladd, Frazier and Wilson like the above post.  Heck, one of them may have been mine.  It seems that the scouts go into paralysis by analysis.  Ladd might not be the ideal weight or height, it's tabo to draft centers high, Wilson had past injuries.  All that said, those dudes just dominated at their respective positions. Our scouting department and Morgan need the K.I.S.S montra--keep it simple stupid. STOP overthinking it.
    • This team has long had an allergy to the obvious pick. They take an XL and think they can coach him up to be the next megaton or DK. Brooks to be the next Peterson. Burns to be the next LT. They pick dudes and play them outside of their natural position. They draft for need, get desperate, pick the flawed guy, and the results speak for themselves. They go to the store jonesing for a ribeye, the store is sold out except for the ‘manager’s special’ … and end up with a toilet of puke later that night…  whereas the filet that was sitting right next to it got some other dude laid.  The obvious pick with no need of coaching up has done them pretty well. Moose. Peppers. Kuechly. Davis. Gross. Jenkins, etc.  Sometimes obvious is just obvious. Consistently missing on first and second rounders gets them exactly where they are. Loser teams, devoid of talent and a revolving door at head coach.  WR: Pick the guy who can catch the damn ball. DE: pick the guy who can play the run well. Pass rush is nice, but playing the run is better.  center: smart big guy who doesn’t miss assignments.  tackle: good pass protector first. Run blocker second. If you have a really good QB and receivers that can catch, the running game will open itself up by default.    It’s not THAT hard, right? Diamonds in the rough are usually only quartz. Stop picking up dudes whose flaw is THE primary skill required for their position, thinking that you’ve got some sort of magical staff. Go BPA with the healthy guy who just flat out gets it done better than anyone else still available…. Except for a RB or special teamer. Yes BPA is boring, but it stacks the team with legit talent.    That’s what I’m going to call their reaches from now on. The f-in manager’s special. Break out the cast iron griddle, Montreal steak seasoning, and some avocado oil.
