Yeah, that defence really missed Jarred Allen badly this year. I think Dorsey will be okay on the line as D-Tackle isn't a position where rookies step in and excel at right away, and I think he was injured for part of the first half too. Recently the Chiefs had been much better against the run. But the fact that the Chiefs have zero outside pass rush really killed them. Any team where the QB has all day to throw the ball will make adjustments and find a way to kill you in the second half. Thats what happened to the Chiefs for the past 8-9 weeks where they have been competitive.
No doubt given the power of hindsight....I wish King Carl would have quit last year, let a new GM come in and sign Allen, than trade the 5 pick down for more picks in the draft to try and make up for the picks received in the Allen deal. At least Brandon Albert looked good as the year wore on. But I think I'd be looking to either trade down in this draft or if there is a beast of a Defensive end draft that guy.
