He took a RB and Fisher clone while Ballard got Darius Leonard and Braden Smith a few picks later.
He’s learned nothing from his time here. He’s already spending like a mother****er and bringing in extremely difficult personalities. Shit John, you’d think the Marcus Peters fiasco would have taught you something. Nope...gotta get OBJ.
Give it a couple years when Dorsey doesn’t have it easy anymore and you’ll see the same thing happen that happened here. Dorsey is good, but he’s got some major flaws. |
OBJ isn't Peters. OBJ is a typical diva WR, Peters is a complete asshole. There's a difference.
You could do a LOT worse than a Fisher clone. We got spoiled watching Big Willie Roaf-but Big Willie was a generational talent at LT. It's not Fisher's fault that he was probably the best player in a decade-worst draft and we had the bad luck to pick first.
That small frail corner played pretty well. And I don't think 5'11" 190 is THAT small anyway.
It'll be worth watching their cap situation. They have the room right now to absorb OBJ's contract, but in a couple of years they're going to have to make some decisions. We'll see if Dorsey has learned from his mistakes. As of right now, though, he's following Reid's blueprint and getting Mayfield as many weapons as possible, like we did signing Watkins.
