John Dorsey Appreciation Thread

This seemed like a necessary post. I think we as a fan base take for granted the moves our GM has made and the culture he and coach Reid have developed in KC. It's a tough thing to make all these things click at once (looking at you, Pioli).

A list I hope can be added to for years, some highlights of the Dorsey era since 2013:
-Drafted Travis Kelce, top 5 TE
-Drafted Eric Fisher, who has developed into a top 15, perhaps 10 tackle
-Claimed Jaye Howard, a brick wall at the LOS
-Claimed and re-signed Ron Parker, a journeyman turned into a high quality safety
-Signed Husain Abdullah, another quality safety
-Re-signed Allen Bailey, a bull at the LOS
-Flipped Kelcie McCray for a 5th round pick
-Signed Chase Daniel, great backup who has one the team a game in relief
-Signed Mike DeVito, solid veteran who is great in the run game
-Drafted Phillip Gaines, who looked like a real nice slot corner pre-ACL
-Re-signed Justin Houston, top 5 defensive player in the NFL
-Kept Tamba Hali on a pay cut, playing at a high level while the jury is still out on Dee Ford
-Signed Jeremy Maclin, a true WR1 that the Chiefs have lacked
-Draft De'Anthony Thomas, top 5 kick returner
-Signed undrafted FA's Charcandrick West, Albert Wilson, Justin March (promising prospect)
-Re-signed Jamaal Charles, all-time great RB
-Drafted Mitch Morse, already a top 10 center
-Drafted Marcus Peters, that's all
-Traded for Alex Smith, say what you will, no he's not elite, but he's better than what we've had for years and wins more than most
-Traded for Anthony Sherman, perhaps the best FB in the NFL
-Signed Sean Smith, top 10 corner a year ago

With the jury still out on several picks and more moves to be made, here's to hoping this list continues to grow and grow moving forward. Kudos so far, Mr. Dorsey. Don't stop now.

I'm a believer in him. For the most part, he's been really good.

That's a good collective list of moves.

Mind you, he does have his share of bad moves as well.

Imo, he would be an even better GM if he doesn't get ripped off by signing tier 2 players to non-reasonable deals. Vance Walker signing is one that comes to mind. But no GM is perfect and even the best ones make mistakes.

At least he's establishing a winning culture.

The playoff win will come.

They've beaten a bunch of shitty teams and players aren't carrying out murder/suicides, yay!


Seriously though, too early to tell.

They've had plenty of signature wins over the last couple of years....

Dumb dumb dumb. You don't come back from 1-5 without strong minded players and a strong culture.

Just stop.

I'm not gonna post a Dorsey appreciation thread when we've beaten trash teams for the most part and haven't even won a playoff game yet. Just me though.

They've beaten 4 playoff teams in the past 2.5+ seasons, only including the Broncos at this point this season... two of those were in September.

I guess we have different definitions of "signature win".

Like I said though, it's just too early to tell... he could be awesome and it all pays off in another year or 3, who knows (but I'm obviously not holding my breath). People are so quick to judge, and apparently they somehow still have fans who are quick to side with success. Kind of crazy, but whatever.

You can thank Reid for that

It takes him half the season to get his teams to the point that other teams are at in week 2.
