What really pisses me off about the whole thing is we could have drafted the guy. We had a need and he fit great. Fans wanted him, media was picking him in mocks. Everything seemed to align. Then big sweaty takes a receiver. I’m sure he would have been resigned and not hit the market. Sucks.

If you’re looking for some real fun, revisit the thread from when Dorsett got drafted (I for the record was saying that I hoped Dorsett’s arrival would get Cribbs off the team not Josh Gordon like I said there):

I seriously wonder wtf Grigson was thinking there? He could have addressed a lot of needs and had the options. Phillip effing Dorsett. Lmao!

I'll probably re-up that thread as well when I dunk on people after Funchess has a good year.

The problem is is that if I’m right about Funchess then I’ll look like a douche for bumping the thread C&O-style next year.

If you do it then nobody will be happier than me to be wrong.

I already gave C&O permission to bump my posts in the Funchess thread, so I'm counting on him to come through.

If you're right, I won't hold it against you. Part of being a fan is irrationally choosing which mountain to die on. I went hard against the Dorsett pick and I was right. I'm going hard again with Funchess, but we'll see how it looks. I just think Reich will try to magnify his strengths and steer away from his weaknesses like he did with Ebron.

Ehh I actually tried defending him. Cringe. I liked Dorsett, just not as a number 1 pick, I did want Collins. I liked him as a second rounder. Was really wrong on him, why I put more emphasis on route running now.

I watched Dorsett play in the Miami FSU game and he was amazing. Funny thing is, I think the pats really would have taken him in round 1 that year.

I just read that the Redskins did not bother consulting HC Jay Gruden before signing Collins to that deal. That he heard about it on TV. What a POS organization.
