Taking your post and mine out of context again. Your post implied that we all think Ballard is a genius for manipulating things to get the right team record in the right year to take the best guard ever. Not even close to my argument, and I have not seen that argument anywhere. My posts in response have not even remotely stated any of that, except taking Nelson was our only option, and that was stated because we were unable to lure the top OL guys in free agency.
You are like Dam, who likes twisting the words of posters to put up a straw man to fight. It is tiring to play your games.
I should add that the meaning behind the original post I made had a lot to do with the mantra on here for the past three years which was this: Protect Luck! Fix the OLine! You're gonna get Luck killed! We can argue all day long about how to accomplish this, but my contention is that Ballard went after FA linemen and was not successful, for whatever reason, so he decided to get the biggest stud OL guy in the draft.
