Sorry JC, but this is a poor comparison. Ballard went out to California and spent three days with Peters and his family before advising Dorsey to make Peters their pick in the 1st round.
Banner was a 4th round pick made before Ballard had his scouting operation up and running with the Colts. It's feasible that the scouts that advised Banner's selection are not even with the organization anymore.
