John Dorsey reportedly candidate for Packers GM
Yeah, that would suck pretty ****ing hard.

Quote:
When the Packers face the Giants in Sunday's wild-card game, the focus will be on the field. But the future of the man who built the Packers is one that is being fiercely debated in Green Bay. How long 63-year-old general manager Ted Thompson, with two years left on his contract, continues in his current job is an open question.

Now, an intriguing name has emerged as a potential successor: Chiefs GM John Dorsey.


Dorsey, a former Packers player who cut his teeth in Green Bay under Hall of Fame architect Ron Wolf, has not yet signed a contract extension, sources said. He's in the final year of his deal, potentially opening the door to him leaving what he helped build in Kansas City to work at Lambeau Field.

Sources said Dorsey is incredibly well-regarded by the Packers executive committee, including President and CEO Mark Murphy, from his time as a scout, Director of College Scouting and Director of Football Operations. Timing would have to be perfect, but if Thompson steps away to take a senior scouting role as some involved believe, Dorsey would be in a position to step in this year.

Dorsey and coach Andy Reid have worked hand-in-hand over the past four years to build the Chiefs into a consistent winner, and they are seeded second in the AFC playoffs. The Chiefs intend to give a contract extension to Reid this offseason, a source said. After this year, Reid will be in the final year of his deal.

The list of successors to Thompson is an intriguing one. It includes Director of Football Operations Eliot Wolf, who interviewed this week for the 49ers' open GM job. While he was blocked from interviewing for the Lions' GM job last year, his interview this year means he could be leaving. There is also Russ Ball, the vice president of football administration, who is universally respected in the NFL and by the executive committee. Director of Player Personnel Brian Gutekunst and Senior Personnel Executive Alonzo Highsmith are among the talented members of the Packers' front office.

With Dorsey entering the picture, it adds some intrigue to the future of the Packers' front office.

Rodgers is 33 and if Dorsey comes in, he'll be getting the last few good years of him (while getting none of the credit for bringing him in).

Shortly enough, Packers fans will realize that having a top 10-15 All-Time quarterback is a luxury and not just something that you get to have as a matter of course. And when that happens, things will get much more difficult for them.

And they're going to blame the guy that's in charge of that team for not just making a new HoF quarterback appear.

Personally, I don't think he'll leave. I don't think Thompson will actually step down and if he does it will be so they can keep Wolf in-house. But professionally I don't think it's a terribly good idea for him to leave either. He'll be taking over a winner that somebody else built without having generated the good will of creating said winner.

So when if it stumbles as their key component ages (and it will; Rodgers is that team), he's going to be the one that takes the arrows.

The only silver lining would be that a new GM might be willing to finally get rid of the piece of shit Smith for a real QB.
Yes, which is the only part that is really worrisome for me.

I just have to believe that Hunt has already approached Dorsey about an extension and it hasn't happened yet. That only happens if Dorsey wants to wait. jmo.

Maybe Dorsey and Reid are working together

Neither will sign unless they both sign

"Has not yet signed a contract extension" sound like there's one on the table and he hasn't signed it yet to anyone else?

I just don't see anyway that Hunt doesn't have an offer on the table already.

Should have had it on the table last year even


This is Dorsey's first time as GM, he should only get better at it.

Yeah, considering the circumstances, I don't see why they wouldnt.

Unless there's something we don't know going on behind the scenes.

There's a press conference with Andy and Mark Donovan in 30 minutes. I'm sure that question will be asked

I think it's all smoke I wouldn't be suprised if he'd already been extended and they're waiting to announce it after a successful season. You know like Jeff fisher lol.

Any update on this? It has been 2 hours since you stated this information. I went to KCChiefs.com and can't find anything about a press conference today

Andy shrugged it off and just wanted to talk football. He was never going to talk about anyone's contract.
