Would you trade for Glenn Dorsey?

Rumor has it that the Chiefs are looking to move last years top 5 pick DT Glenn Dorsey. The move apparently has nothing too do with Dorsey's health or play, it's just that under new management this year the Chiefs are moving to a 3-4 Defense and Dorsey is a 4-3 DT. He's not big enough to play NT, but could be a great young addition to a 4-3 scheme such as ours :)

I dont know what it would take for us to get him, but i might even be inclined to give up next years first for this guy. Dorsey no doubt would have been a top 5 pick in this years draft, and could become a dominating guy on the D-line. KC is also looking to get a DE for their 3-4, someone versatile, i think we may be able to help em out ;)

Whatcha think?

Not gonna happen, 3-4 defense or not... KC didn't invest that high of a pick in him to just try to trade him off.. Once its made public over a rumour, then there might be a chance. I mean why don't we just say "Yo, lets try trade for Calvin Johnson since the Lions suck and are under new managment"...

It'd be a nice thought if you could snag him but its unlikely.

I read somewhere that the Falcons are going to land him for the 24 and 90 in this yr. draft. To tired to look for the link. I hope that they dont get him for that or any price. The NFC South is getting tougher by the day.

"3. The Falcons and Chiefs may not be done dealing. Per a league source, Pioli and fellow Atlanta GM Thomas Dimitroff (a former Patriots executive), may be looking to help each other out. Based on rumblings we're hearing from WFSM in Atlanta, the Chiefs and Falcons may still be working on a deal that could send defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey to Atlanta for the 24th overall and 90th overall selections."

I mentioned this trade before. i would take Dorsey and a 3rd next year for Peppers. Dorsey is unproven, and has an injury history. But if they low balled me and did player for player, i think i still would do it.

I'd do that as well...One of the best young 4-3 DTs in the league and an extra pick. I don't think Pep would petition that trade with Pioli and Cassell there now...But I doubt that they would give that much compensation for Peppers. I'd take it in a heartbeat though. I love Glenn Dorsey...

If that happened I would be pissed...NOW I WANT DORSEY DAMMIT!

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
