Another option could be packaging 26 + 59 to get to somewhere like 14-16. Would Ballard be interested in doing that if Oliver starts to fall? What if he and Eberflus love a guy like Brian Burns? Am I spending too much time considering this? Undoubtedly.

I would do that for Burns no problem.

I seriously doubt Ballard moves up with those two picks. Ballard seems to understand that he is going to miss on at least half of his picks, so he wants numbers. Unless he is convinced that this is a can't miss position of need (in which case it will cost us a fortune in draft picks) can't see him making that move.

I would as well. After Bosa, he's my favorite 4-3 end.

Yes :cool: I think Ballard would rather pick twice

He said it himself "I like them picks."

Ballard needs to keep the "Avengers of Scouting" busy and happy.

Sweat certainly caught the attention of Irsay. I have a feeling they were looking at him till he blew up at the combine. Ballard might have to talk him down from that deal. Then again, if Ballard likes him, he might trade a pick to get him.

Still I think we get a DT and DE with those top three picks. The last one I’m trying to figure out what they do. Maybe just BPA.

My money’s on either SS or WR.

I can't remember which article it was, but the consensus was that Ballard likeds having a lot picks, which creates young controllable talent, and competition.
