Long over Dorsey... Not even a question.

Many have questions, but only some have answers.  Long over Dorsey??? Yes. Long over Dorsey, and all I have to say is that was a great move.  Here are my five reasons why: 1) Dorsey is not going to sign until the last week of training camp, thus limiting his production in his rookie season. 2) Dorsey had a down second half of his last season with the LSU Tigers. 3) Dorsey is overrated, and is not the next Warren Sapp. 4) Chris Long is better and more determined.  This is why Long should have been drafted over Dorsey.

good point(s)

to me, the Rams need for a DE outweighed the benefits of taking Dorsey.

Five great reasons

There is no reason for me to believe that Dorsey will not be Claude Wroten 2.0, and that Chris Long will not be Howie Long 2.0. Long over Dorsey!

Why do you care so much about Dorsey failing?

I had Dorsey over Long and was very disapointed about the selection.

Having said that, I hope I am totally wrong about Long (can’t really care about Dorsey now one way or the other).

GO LONG! Let’s see what ya got. We are all pulling for you now.

What?

Good reasoning for liking Dorsey or Long.

True

I could not agree with you more “marmie is the best”.

agreed

I would much rather have a line of Little, Carriker, Ryan/Glover, and Long rather than Little, Carriker, Dorsey, Glover, Hall. We have two aging DE’s and two promising young DT’s in Ryan and Carriker. Its just common sense.

Over statement.

Its way too earily to start saying things like HOF for a guy who has yet to play a snap.
