I don't complain about everything.
I just don't act like a guy putting up the 5th worst numbers of qualifying players at his position should be starting for 28 teams in the NFL. He's not good at blocking, he doesn't have good vision, he doesn't have good agility, and he can't hold on to the ball. He can run in a straight line. |

Saw a thing on NFL mobile, listing best all time compensatory picks..
Tom Brady, Larry Allen, Brian Dawkins, Hines Ward, La'Roi Glover, Marques Colston, Matt Hasselbeck, Mike Vrabel, Derrick Alexander, Pierre Garcon --- that was the top 10.

any time Knile has been asked to fill in for Jamaal he's done an exemplary job and he's also been very good in the return game ...but yeah what a waste! |

but granted, '08 we had a TON of picks between 1-100.
But kudos to Herm for drilling the Flowers and Charles picks. Those were legendary good picks. Albert was so-so, Dorsey was a HUGE miss (but you can't even blame Herm for that) ... and everything else sucked. I'd give them a B for Albert. An A+++ for Flowers. and a OFF THE CHARTS A+ for Charles. and the funny thing, that is a LEGENDARILY good NFL draft... yet some of the fools on this board expect 4 starters and a few pro bowlers out of every draft ...and that's insane |

I think everyone had Dorsey as a top 5 pick. |

but, in that very draft, we had ugly misses on Dorsey (#5), Cottam (3rd), Morgan (3rd) and Franklin (4th)
...and that's about typical, really if Herm could do it all over again I bet he trades that 2nd 1st and 1 of those 3rds to see if he can get up there and get Ryan we had all the ammo in the world to get Matt Ryan and we didn't pull the trigger a colossal mistake |

yes, Dorsey was pegged as a "generational" prospect ... hard to fault anyone for that miss (and it was a HUGE miss)
I think Albert is pretty overrated, personally ... but I still give him a solid B given that he was a high 1st round pick. Some might give him an A, and that's fine. Hell, he pretty much netted us the 3rd round comp pick so maybe I'll go ahead and bump him up to an A. |

Dorsey was an ugly miss. A very ugly miss. He was the #5 pick in the whole draft. He was a bust. He's not going to make NFL Network's top 100 bust list or anything, but he was a non-memorable bust who had a non-memorable NFL career. Remember, he was supposed to be "Warren Sapp."

If anything, at least T Jax came in and we all knew he would never live up to that #3 selection. When Dorsey was taken, everyone on this site partied and couldn't believe he fell to us at #5... and he had arguably less impact for the Chiefs than Tyson Jackson ... if not about the same they were both huge ****ing misses |

now, was that our fault for not playing him in the right position? Maybe. Or maybe he just wasn't that good? Or maybe he never got over that knee? who knows. But yeah, pretty brutal bust.
