If we make a bid for Dorsey...

...could Dwayne Jarrett be a piece of the puzzle? KC is lacking in good recievers, and while Jarrett has been largely a bust, KC may see him as a good project. He's got raw talent, and they've been able to do some pretty miraculous things with recievers over there.

If we DO go after Dorsey (which may be pipe dreams at this point, but you never know) would Jarrett, a 3rd round pick, and another player be a viable trade?

well, my brain tells my Jarrett has zero value and that you are crazy for even suggesting such........but then I remembered the contract Keary Colbert got after we released him....so I guess you never know what kind of value people place on these guys.

True enough about Colbert CRA, but there is a difference in trading something for someone who seemingly has little or no value and signing a free agent.

I agree about the difference, but giving a piece of crap that kind of a deal Denver did showed that they did think MUCH more highly of him than we did. But, yeah I don't think Jarrett holds any trade value. I don't see Hurney giving up any more picks and I don't see a trade involving only players.

Neither one of them have proven they are a reliable player. The fact of the matter is that Dorsey doesn't fit that scheme and everyone around the league knows it. He can be had for less than what he is worth IMO. He is being misused and underutilized playing a 3-4 end.

yeah it's definitely a long shot, I just thought I'd see what the general consensus was. I think the main thing Jarrett has going for him is raw talent - if there's a coaching staff out there that sees themselves as being able to glean the raw talent from otherwise under-performing receivers, they may see him as prime material. KC seems to be one of those types of teams.

that said, I would definitely take the dorsey/hayden trade straight up. :D

Dorsey isn't happening. His cap value is WAY too high. And good grief, what did he do last year?

he had the most tackles for a rookie defensive tackle in i think the last six years.

that's despite playing out of position

To be honest, Kenny Moore probably has more trade value. Most people looking in on the situation would just assume that Moore could be the odd man out and want to trade for him before he is cut and on the open market. Putting Jarrett up on the trade block just screams Bust.

Moore is going nowhere. Diamond in the rough. Only costing 350K. He will win the a spot in the starting rotation over Jarrett. Jarrett is not intelligent enough to understand the complex NFL playbook that was handed to him

    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
    • I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
    • I think Ottawa and Edmonton force game 7.  Although I feel stronger about Toronto failing than I do about Edmonton getting it done again.
