I agree. If anything that supports the reason for your original question of who else should he have picked. If the only other first round pick that has done better was at the end of the round and wasn't projected anywhere near the top 10, you know that year was a terrible draft class. Just awful, really.

There was never any doubt about Peters abilities, but more so a character issue that Dorsey and Reid even flew out to speak with him personally. How does Ballard get the trophy of being responsible for Peters to KC? |

Very interesting. This kind of makes Berry and Maclin sound like drama queens. Those types of dramas seem relatively minor to warrant firing a guy who's been the best talent acquisition guy in the league for the past several years.

I don't know many specifics but there were tons of analysts and talking heads who swore we shouldnt/wouldnt take a safety that high...so If he held course and was the one insisting on going against the tradition and theory that that is too high for a S, then credit should be given...

I'm blaming Clark here. He may have had a succession plan in place with Ballard, but he didn't bring the Dorsey thing to a head in time to actually use it. He waited until the succession plan had collapsed and then decided that he couldn't live a moment longer with Dorsey. Talk about a mis-managed situation. |

Are you thinking of Berry? I never saw Peters labeled as a safety. Also many corners were taken before him so why would that be too high? |

yes i was thinking of the berry pick
my bad I know that pick was 'unusual' because S usually doesnt get drafted that high...i have no idea who was the one who actually scouted or made the case for that pick though.. same with peters I don't know enough about the situation to be concerned about Ballard leaving (or not concerned) I guess for a layman without specific knowledge the idea of change (dorsey and ballard leaving) at a time when things are going OK and we seem to be prepping for a good future is a little strange and discomforting though...just generally

I could be wrong, but didn't Andy have a partial say upon hiring Dorsey? I know it was publicized as all Clark, but no way we land Reid without his input. Andy probably thought John could give him the right pieces, should we trust Reid ( I mean "Clark") on finding his replacement?
