I believe his entire 2013/4 FA class has already been cut or is no longer on the team and he was unable to secure extensions with the two young, cost-controlled players whose salaries were up in this offseason, one of whom was signed by a division rival.
You'll find no bigger fan of Jeremy Maclin than me. If the search function on here worked you could find posts of me advocating for the Chiefs drafting him at #3 overall in 2009, but I remain unconvinced that Alex Smith can make use of his talent.
I'm also seriously concerned about the continued decline of the offensive line, and I think that people are foolishly conflating our pass ranking with great secondary play when most of it, I believe, was due to the pressure exerted on the QB by Hali, Poe, and Houston.

His #1 draft pick was acknowledged by just about everyone as the highest rated guy in that draft. He did meh at RT and then got hurt to where he couldn't work out much. Granted, his play at LT was worse than meh. BUT, you've gotta admit it's still a bit early to write him off as Brian Joswiak (nice recall BTW).
As per Dee Ford, well, again, it's early, but I'd agree that early indications are well, not super good. NONETHELESS, I doubt that you, in your wisest moment, would suggest that after a couple of drafts Dorsey is horrible at it. Just WAY too early.
As per signing Houston/Hudson, good heavens, it takes someone to agree to stuff to get a contract done. Looks to me like the H&H boys came prepared to try the free agent market. Hard to blame Dorsey on that.
Oh well, I kinda like Dorsey (Lord knows he's WAY better than what we had). Apparently, you're not a fan. I guess we'll just have to agree to my way of thinking! :D
