You guys keep on believing that he's going to take so and so position because we have a hole there or whatever, but it doesn't make a goddamn bit of difference. Dorsey will pick whoever is left on the top of his list that the Decision Lens gives him, whatever position that is be it kicker, QB, OG or whatever. |

Oh, depending on how bad KC's record ends up... Leonard Williams is a terror... but doubtful he comes into play. Probably will be top 3 pick.

He hasn't done it yet, here, and there's zero evidence that he will, going forward. Ford was a reach, there were WAY better options to fill the "voids" on this team, and he certainly wasn't "at the top" of the decision lens either. He chose him for a reason, not because he was X or Y guy at Z position in the draft. |

It's well known that Dorsey utilizes the Decision Lens software in building his draft list as well as narrowing down free agent possibilities. Zero evidence, huh?: Quote:

His reasoning? I have two Elite pass rushers, both took injuries last year, and when the defense lost its pass rush, we got smoked. And it didn't take a rocket scientist or any mathematical formula to tell you that Ford "Might" just be one of the most talented pass rushers in the draft, and coupled with the complexity of having to sign Houston and decide what to do with Tamba, the "go to" option there was to draft Ford because you get to bank on the "new" CBA offering team friendly contracts to first round draft picks. Seriously, some of you are forgetting how much that CBA changed the shape and mode of drafting, beyond CP's "CBA means draft a QB in the first round every year" mantra. Almost EVERY draft pick he's made since being here in KC has been made for future replacements or depth so far, and if you go back to his tenure in Green Bay, almost every single one of his picks then followed suit with very few exceptions to that rule. Dorsey is a "Forward thinking" team builder type. Decision Lense's advantage there is for late round analysis only with the way he's drafted. |

Ford was chosen because Dorsey doesn't understand value. Clearly pass rushers are to be avoided, or picked with late round fliers.

I think he understood the value pretty well, facing having to Sign Houston and restructure Hali or let hali go after this season........

Fluently, you do realize this is a Direkshun thread though, right? Benefit of the doubt must be established here first lol.
Kind of on topic though for a moment. If I had to handicap the player position that we draft as of 10/15/14, I'm putting it at about a 75% chance we draft a CB in the first round, unless there's some kind of suspicion that Kendricks could move into the 1st round, which I doubt as of this moment. |
