We also have Grover Stewart and Hassan Ridgeway, who have both seen significant playing time, although i am less certain of their future success with the Colts.

So i would say we have 10 guys who have all seen significant playing time throughout their careers. They may not all be starters, but they are not scrubs with no experience either. They are exactly what you need for depth.

Ballard will trade 34. I'm fine with that.

Question is what type of trade he would value most. These are all roughly equal in terms of the value chart:

1) NYJ: 68 + 2020 2nd + 2020 4th
2) CIN: 42 + 72 for 34 + 89
3) DEN: 41 + 125 + 182

You could obviously structure either Denver or Cincy’s deal the same way.

Fins getting Rosen for #48. Really like this draft so far for them.

Jets have been desperate for an EDGE. I'm guessing they want Ferguson.

I wonder if Ballard would have any interest in Leonard Williams. Jets might consider moving him now that they have Quinnen Williams.

and the Colts don't need an EDGE rusher? At some point Ballard has to start making picks !!! Last year he vastly improved this team, this year, so far, not so much !!

Where have you seen, or read that ?

Based on his comments about quality players through #70, I would guess he’d prefer option #2. He’s also running into a roster crunch, so adding more picks this year who will likely be cut is another consideration. But that’s also an argument for #1. Hmm...
