As far as him fitting in here, if I'm not mistaken he's basically a 3-technique type DT like Okoye and is not the big run stopping Nose type tackle we need so badly in our defense ?

Actually!
"Dorsey struggled in his rookie season, but so do a lot of highly drafted defensive linemen. In fact, Dorsey's struggles might have been overstated, at least when it comes to playing the run. Dorsey made his average run tackle last season after a gain of just 1.5 yards, the best figure of any of the Chiefs' defensive linemen.
His biggest problem has been getting pressure on the QB. But he was injured most of the year. I think he would be a great addition to our defense. The only reason they are thinking of trading him is because of the switch to the 3/4. He doesnt fit so its jsut a bad situation for them. Remember Mario didnt blow anyone away his first year either. We should be taking a long hard look at him if these rumors are true.
