Not to start another good times debate, but to what extent do you think the "proverbial veteran presence" is a factor in the Ballard culture?

The reason I'm bringing this up is we see a great deal of leadership based on merit. Darius Leonard became a rookie leadership presence in the locker room by the end of the season, There is video of Quenton Nelson mentoring Costanzo

I think that veteran presence if very important, but I think it might be less important to the Colts' buy-in culture than it might be for other teams.
