I concede that C. Long is probably the safest pick, but I'm not at all convinced that he's necessarily the best pick.
I think the addition of Dorsey will help our pass rush and we could also pick up a DE like Jackson, Groves or Avril.
I'm OK with Dorsey if we do end up taking him.
You do have a good point. I do not see teams trying to move up to select Long. Dorsey has the potential to be a dominate player and he seems to have the right attitude.

Tony if your trying to evaluate a Defensive Tackles talent do not look at the stats. The stats for Defensive Tackles often are misleading. The best way for a fan to evaluate a DT is ask a couple of questions.

Was the run D on the team he played for good or very good?

Did the DT command double or triple teams and still make plays and got pressure on the QB.

If the question is yes, yes, yes, what more do you need other than the character/leadership qualities......
