As PFT's Michael David Smith noted, that’s not exactly a ringing endorsement of Cassel. But it also may turn out that Cassel is the best option the Chiefs have. Dorsey said on 610 Sports Radio in Kansas City that the 2012 draft, with Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III at the top and a lot of talent beyond those two, was the kind of draft that doesn’t come along every year. Or even every decade. “That’s one of those drafts that come along every two decades, maybe every three decades, when you have that many impact players,” Dorsey said. Given all that, Dorsey added that just because the Chiefs would like to find a franchise quarterback, that doesn’t mean they’re going to draft a quarterback first overall if they don’t determine that there’s a quarterback worthy of going first overall. “I will never attempt to reach or jump on a player just for need’s sake,” Dorsey said. “We’re not going to do that here. ..." Stay tuned. There's no question that upgrading at QB is priority in KC. But will they get that done this year? We'll see.
