The 49ers piece said that the Chiefs had a deal in place to move up to the Jets pick, IIRC.
But Dorsey himself has said that he had a gentlemen's agreement struck with the Bills over a week before the draft and when the 10 spot made it up, they pulled the trigger per their prior conversations.
it was some stealth ninja shit from Dorsey. If it don't work, it don't work, but it was a masterful job getting the guy he wanted.
