Vick Ballard, though, was a pretty good pick in the 5th round. He looked like he could be our starter going forward until he blew his ACL in 2013 and then his Achilles in 2014. Never could make it back.

You beat me to it. Ballard was actually pretty good until he got hurt, especially for a 5th rounder. If he had stayed healthy then Grigs may not have wasted a 1st rounder on Richardson. Although as incompetent as Grigs he probably still would have (or wasted the 1st rounder in the draft).
