NFL analyst John Clayton believes that the Seattle Seahawks are a likely landing spot for former Chiefs GM John Dorsey.

John Dorsey is himself a free agent these days, and the market for the former Kansas City Chiefs General Manager is an uncertain one. Depending on the stories being told (and believed) in NFL circles, Dorsey might soon find a spot within an existing group or wait until January to run a new front office of his own. John Clayton, NFL analyst, thinks it will be the former.

Clayton recently wrote that his best guess for a new home is the Seattle Seahawks, which would bring Dorsey back together with his old pal John Schneider, who is now the Seahawks GM. The pair share a long history in Green Bay.

"The feeling around the NFL is the Chiefs might hire from within the organization to replace Dorsey. Don’t be surprised if he lands with the Seahawks in some capacity. He’s good friends with Schneider along with Oakland Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie. With the Chiefs paying him for the 2017 season, Dorsey would be a bargain to any team wanting to add him."

Perhaps Dorsey will use the money to take a paid vacation with his family, to get away from the game he knows so well to enjoy some rest and relaxation that’s a rarity in the life of an NFL executive. However, it’s also possible that a team will enjoy a fresh perspective on the books of another team. Dorsey could be an incredible asset for nearly any NFL team and the Seahawks would certainly do well to bring him in for the short or long term.
