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.

Well if he wins a championship without one, then he's Ozzie Newsome. But until then, yeah. When your last great QB is Len Dawson, your job is to find the next guy and become a champion.

I was fine with Carl for 5-6 years. He made the team relevant again, he hired Marty, it was good. But then we hit our ceiling, and never got beyond it. Dorsey has gotten us back to that level at least. But if in another couple of years we're still hovering around 9-10 wins every year with a couple of wildcard appearances and no runs in the playoffs, that's not going to be good enough.

But like I said, it is hard to completely evaluate him as an individual because I think Reid has a much bigger hand in things than he lets on. For all we know Dorsey without Reid goes a different direction at some key spots. So I'm going to temper any critique or praise of the guy with that in mind...

I'm not a big fan of the Carl comparison. I must admit I was 10 in 1995 so I'm not gonna pretend I know all his moves. But I saw a team either loaded on D or loaded on Offense. The difficulty is bringing both back and I think he is doing that while improving depth constantly.

I also don't think by what he says that he has intention of ignoring qb. Carls ego always got in the way. Does anybody see that with dorsey?

Cool. We spent a 3rd on a good kick returner or have a good return unit. I guess a good rerurn team is something Dorsey could get credit for.

The problem with Carl is he found himself in a win now situation in half decade runs with Marty and Vermeil... I also think it was just job security. You put your job on the line drafting QBs and Carl kept his job for 20 years by using mostly experienced backups from other teams.

Not here, and a half-dead toad could win a playoff game with Bill as your head coach and the GM doing whatever he's told to do.

Probably a top 5 GM in the league. His list of great moves is long as hell, and his glaring mistakes are few and far between.

Dorsey has done an outstanding job.

You can see by the way the backups stepped up.

More talent from top to bottom than we've had in years ... maybe ever.

Dorsey should be showered with praise but Davis was still a shit pick.
