Hope you are wrong, big time (I assume you hope the same thing). One thing you are not as concerned with as Ballard is is the dudes character, Ballard is sky high on his motor and character-two things that are integral to his way of thinking. Makes for a better team and experience rooting for them-no obvious douche bags.

Character is the first thing Ballard mentioned. I get the importance of it, but it's not so important as to completely override football ability. To draft Paye, Ballard must have tremendous confidence in his DL coaching group, because they have their work cut out for them. This guy has no understanding of how to attack a OT to generate pressure. They're going to have to put that knowledge in him in 5 months with restricted training camps.

Also, you misunderstood me. I never said anything about who was better between Oweh and Paye. What I said was Oweh has better traits if they were going to draft a guy just for his traits.
