ballard has talked about being strong upfront. he addressed OL heavily last year, I think it will be similar this year, especially with the draft being as deep at the DL as is being reported.
It's possible teams will see a run on DL and want to not miss out, so they'll reach on players that don't deserve it. And a good non-DL player will fall into our laps.

Then again NFL GMs love to be the smartest guy in the room so they may be looking away from DL thinking that's where the value will be.

I doubt Ballard is locking himself into anything, other than just taking the highest player in his binder. Depending on who you read there could be 10+ DL taken before we pick.
