Aint that the truth!

Everything I've read about him uses the same adjectives...exciting...electrifying. I think Sellers went to the CFL from juco and then played for us, went to Cleveland?, and then we got him back. Not really sure.

It's more than you can F'ing afford, I'm not giving away this F'er for free you know.

Man Dorsey is tiny, 5'7, 173 lbs. Looks like he sure can scoot though.

Re: News from up North
 

Thanks to everyone who provided links to articles and videos on Dorsey. He looks like he could be a great fit for our return game. He reminds me of Sproels, but thats probably just the burgundy and gold glasses blinding me to the truth that he's just our most recent FA mancrushwho will likely never make the active roster. its a nice pickup. maybe he can push some of our own guys to improve, but i cant see us making room for Dorsey, Cartwright, and Randel El on the roster. ARE is virtually uncuttable due to his cap figure and Cartwright is too much of a leader on this team. I really cant see Dorsey making the roster over Rock.

We wouldn't want to do anything that might spark excitement now would we:)

Re: News from up North
 

If he can only return punts, he won't make the team. But if he can be that "change of pace" back to Portis, he has a shot. He had a pretty good average in the CFL but it doesn't look like he had that many rushes each year. We had a rb in camp a couple of years ago from the CFL, Jesse something I think, he was great in the CFL....didn't make it past preseason with us. I'll take the seat Matty. I don't care what the cost. Just send the bill to 44ever, he's LOADED!

Re: News from up North
 

[quote=Angry;524910]Why they would scour the CFL for a return man...one that is already 3 years into his professional career at that. Why bring in a 4th RB to compete for the return job already held by the 3rd RB unless you are planning on getting rid of him or promote him. In that case some other RB might be out via trade. I could add a couple of more things but I believe that my next sentence will better explain my position.

Right now the Skins should be posturing for the draft (they claim to want more picks) not just adding camp bodies. So either somebody believes that he is a viable replacement to a player or 2. Or somebody has their head up their ass. I believe that this guy is a camp body, but why add one now? There will be plenty of time for that later, especially after the draft.

Why this guy and why now? I understand the pickup of the Kicker, but this doesn't make sense yet.[/quote]

i think dorsey is more than just camp filler. hes the best special teamer in cfl so i hope he atleast translate to a good special teamer with the skins. cartwright is a solid kick returner but hes nothing special and we all know we need help at returning punts and thats where dorsey comes in. also he can catch the ball pretty well out of the backfield.

jesse lumsden and he still is great in the cfl. we just didn't need him and hes not a return man. if betts went down in preseason we would of kept him.

Yep. That's the guy. Pretty good sized dude from what I remember. I was pulling for him.

Re: News from up North
 

The skins have made a ton of these tiny moves and they're usually stupid. however a new punt returner would be cool.it would also make a lot more sense to throw all of the players on the team we have moss, thomas, hall back there and see how they do cause none of them could possibley do worse then ARE. then give the job to whoevers good at it because these guys are already fast and can play in the nfl. that would also be an amazingly progressive solution.

why can't you see us carrying dorsey, are, and cartwright? we carried 7 rookies who didn't have a big imapct on the field if any impact at all so why couldn't the skins carry a 4th rb and another return man that atleast could have an impact in the return game?
