This is what I'm talking about.

Why is he a disappointment? Are you going to put all the ills of the DL on him?

Most fans don't have the foggiest ****ing clue how to watch DL play, and his numbers alone are better/comparable to the rookie years of Sapp, Haynesworth, etc.

Name the last DT that was an IMPACT player in his rookie year.

Defensive linemen take time to develop.

If you think Dorsey was a disappointment, you had the bar set too high, IMO.
