Re: Randy K: Dorsey was never going to be the pick

I'm happy that C. Long is a Ram. In a way, having the 2nd pick was even better than having the 1st pick. We were lucky that there were two or three excellent defensive line prospects available this year. Since we obviously don't want the 2nd over all pick again next year, we had to make a good choice this year and I think we did.
But I honestly think we had Dorsey rated higher than Long, as probably most teams did. The need factor combined with the injury concern made C. Long the obvious choice. Had there been no injury I think it could have gone either way.
In any case, I think Dorsey has something to prove and if the injury does not plague him, I think he's going to be a great player in the league.
