Chiefs John Dorsey Appreciation Thread - Page 9

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.

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

Win some lose some. Davis's return skills was a factor in him getting drafted. They aren't married to him as a backup RB and found a way to get something out of him anyway.

Dorsey seems to have a preference for versatile players. Sure seems like a smart strategy in today's NFL with all the injuries.

Now Conley, Wilson and Avant need to step up.

Yeah. Guys like RunKc were using Davis as an example of Dorseys brilliance. My point was that is a pretty shitty example, drafting a return man in the 3rd.

This roster looks a lot like Seattle. He deserves a lot of credit for Howard, Ware, Kelce and Peters for certain.
