The Chiefs will be the big winners if Dorsey isn't made of glass. If he's as fragile in the pros as he was in college than his worth will be diminished. But if he can stay healthy than the Chiefs 1st day alone wil make them the winners of this draft no matter what happens on the second day.
Dorsey is not made of glass, he got chopped blocked in a game v. auburn. The injuries simply amassed after that because he kept playing while hurt. In the NFL it is doubtful that teams will take cheap shots at him like they did in college, because there is no possible way to be as dominant as he was in college in the NFL. Plus players have a lot more to lose for taking blatant cheap shots in the NFL than guys who have no shot to go pro do when taking cheap shots in college.
Dorsey will be fine.
The Chiefs had one of the best 2 rounds in a single draft this decade. It will not show right away because they have not acquired the position players (QBs and Wide receivers), but they set themselves up to turn it around after next years draft.
The AFC west may shape up to be the toughest division in the next couple of years, with Russel and McFadden at Oakland, LDT Rivers and Merrimen at San Diego, and up and coming Chiefs.
Dude, let me first say that i'm not an LSU fan, but I live in the south and get stuck watching these coat-tail riders, Glenn Dorsey is the REAL DEAL!! This kid played through an ILLEGAL chop block that is allowed in the south........the same loser that did it to Dorsey did it to a Bama tackle and the douche is still allowed to play!! That's beside the point though, KC got extremely lucky to get this kid........he is a FRIGGEN BEAST!!! Dorsey is made of steel and you guys had a good couple of rounds.
DORSEY? Made of glass? You must believe all the"media" hype, and that wrestling is competley real and that Barry Bonds or ANY other major leager never ever took steroids as well. Oh and that Michael Vick didnt really have or fight Pit bulls and neither did his freinds By the waY, tIGER wOODS MUST NOT BE THE BEST GOLFER IN THE WORLD EITHER , He couldnt even win the Masters... THe only way you could say that Dorsey seems fragile as glass is if your a very FOOLISH person....Come on. THE MAN played through injuries and was still dominate. Nothing CAN STOP HIM, AND HE ONLY HAD "THese" injury problems because he refused to let his team down and kept playing' instead of missing time and costing LSU the chance of a BCS championship, He is the "ultimate team player"! No other PLayers have ever had injuries either, I suppose. Gees the media put him your lap, thanks to those "rumours". Oh and by the way, if you still believe that DOrsey is made of "GLASS", then you probably alos believe that Southern Cal actually waS nATIONAL cHAMPS AGAIN LAST YEAR TOO. HUH? thE MAN IS MADE OF TITANIUM tHATS A BIT STRONGER THAN STEEL, AND GLASS AS WELL FOR THAT MATTER.....Thats why the Saints WANTED HIM WHEN, THEY TRIED TO TRADE UP WITH K.C.....THEY SETTLED FOR SEDRIC ELLIS, ONLY BECAUSE THE Chiefs WERE SMARTER THAN THE FOOLISH PEOPLE WHO PICKED JUST AHEAD OF YOU. DOnt believe they wouldnt havetaken Dorsey If you had...thats media "hype" too...He is/was the best player period...Miami should have picked him. He'llmake Jamrcus Russel look like the biggest "bust" ever, just because he went @1 last year and never, ever should have. DOrsey will be a perinial ALLPRO anbd get to Hawaii just about evry year. Gee's why didnt the Chiefd take the Saints offer...Why oh WHy couldnt they have bee so dumb, too!. (WHo else would know Just how good he was!!, They do communicate downhere in New Orleans....Except when theres a class 4 or 5 hurricane that hits!!,,,,
Apparently this guy doesn't watch college football. I'm a Big Ten fan, but it's obvious to see that this kid is a BEAST. This guy at the very least has a solid career ahead of him, he's a sure thing. Nice pick by the Chiefs (oh yeah, and as a Vikings fan, thanks for Jared Allen!!! :)
Sorry, I just realized my post didn't really address the topic the original poster raised. I meant to say: how can you say Dorsey is made of glass? He doesn't really have an injury history, and in fact he has played injured and excelled in what is the toughest conference in college football right now.
Uhhhh, dude admit you don't watch college football. Glenn Dorsey never missed a game even AFTER he was chop blocked against Auburn. Made of glass? Moron
Remember, one of his injuries was a cheap block by two Auburn players when they were getting knocked around by LSU. Let Dorsey play and develop; if he need surgery at some point in his rookie season to clean-up any physical problems then go ahead. The Chiefs aren't going anywhere in '08. This is just the first year in a two-three year process.
Congrats Chief fans, on what looks to be the best draft this year. Of course we wont know for 3-4 years but looks like the Chiefs really set themselves up for future success.
