It's too bad PFF grades don't translate into actual wins b/c we'd be unbeatable.
His actual objective stats paint a different picture: 10 games played w/ 6 starts. 36 total tackles, 1 sack, 1 PD, 0 Ints, and 0 FFs his rookie year. So hurt a large part of the season and average at best production. Not saying the guy hadn't shown any promise, but a wiser GM would have had a better backup plan than JAGS/ST guys.
And this isn't the first time something like this has happened under Ballard. Paris Campbell, Matt Pryor, Juju Brents to name a few. Maybe this time around Ballard finally learned something.
