I think the best thing John Dorsey did as GM was discovering Terrance Mitchell. That ability to find guys off the street and have them contribute was a very valuable skill.
I think finding Hill in the 5th round was a steal.
Bringing in Travis Kelce in the 3rd, an All Pro caliber tight end, is super impressive.
Kind of crazy to say this, but Eric Fisher turned out to be a pretty good pick considering the other reasonable options that were there in an absolutely garbage draft.
Drafting Pat Mahomes was a stroke of genius as well.
Dorsey's worst move was definitely drafting the corner in the 3rd round that we cut before the season started. That's virtually unheard of in the NFL, an absolutely bizarre move.
The Dwayne Bowe contract was hilariously terrible, maybe one of the worst contracts in Chiefs history.
Maclin as a cap casualty in his last week may turn out to be the worst move, but he was pretty lousy last year.
Hands down best thing Dorsey did was making it possible to draft Patrick Mahomes II. He has done more than any other GM to set up for Superbowls than any other GM four decades. [Reply]

Still, he was obviously fantastic on ST's. Either Reid or Toub called him our best last year.
Three Kansas City Chiefs were named members of Pro Football Focus’ All-Pro Team on Thursday. Tight end Travis Kelce, punt returner Tyreek Hill and special teamer Eric Murray were all first-team selections while safety Eric Berry was noted as an honorable mention.
While often unheralded, rookie defensive back Eric Murray had a sneaky good season for Kansas City on special teams. PFF broke it down:
"The term “special teams ace” gets thrown around a lot, but we’re looking to grade more than simply a tally of special teams tackles. Eric Murray was a key part of the Chiefs’ kickoff, kick return, punt coverage, and punt return units. He routinely made impressive blocks in the return game, and was often found beating blockers to force returners to change direction." [Reply]
