    He was holding a press conference to address this awhile ago. Im sure telling them his injury is being overblown. this is when teams/scouts tear down any top pick in hopes of them falling. happens every year on cue.

    however, worries about dorseys injuries have some legitimacy.

    the injury is the reason he returned his sr year which is what I said all along.

    The injury obviously didn't keep him from dominating the line in every game up until the Chop Block. But hey, I would have no problem with him falling all the way to number 10. :thumb:

    thats a good point. i was hoping for sedrick ellis to fall there a couple months ago. still zero chance dorsey falls that far unless he had 2 broken legs.

    I would draft Dorsey if he was a stump sitting on the field, he could still
    flip in the air and grab the whole backfield and throw guys out till he found the one with the ball!!! :D:geauxtige:champs::helmet::crystal::geaux:

    I think Glenn has proven himself since the injury. No doubt he will be drafted very high and deserves it.

    I agree, he still goes high. Like he said, everyone gets nicked up. He certainly proved his toughness.

    No one has to worry about him not gutting it out. If there's any way, he'll play hurt, and toughness is huge in the NFL with a16 game regular season.

    I love him as much as anybody, but that would have to be a bit more than a "bump" dontcha think? unless he's got osteoporosis or something... Hell, I bump into them all the time, at the gym...no hairline Fxs yet...just sayin'...odd explanation

    This isnt really about Dorsey, it is about trying to make Chris Long the #1 pick, when he is not as near as good as Dorsey. Nor has he played against the competition of Dorsey.

    Doesnt this make you want to destroy Auburn next year, with news like this:thumb:

    why would anyone just want to make chris long the #1 pick much less a group of scouts with conflicting interests?


    dorsey simply has many more question marks regarding his health.

    simply red flags which any team using a number one pick would like to reduce risks.
