I won't be shocked. I'll be willing to bet that he has none of the WR's with a 1st round grade.

Would you like to make a bet on that?

No, was just joking. Besides if that happened I would need the money for a new tv because my control would have just gone through it.

If it did look like the medias draft board (WR, RB on many) I would have been shocked. It doesn't because Ballard is smarter than that. He understands the importance of building up the lines. He is building the right way with the draft.

I was listening to Gil Brandt on NFL radio the other day. He must talk to Ballard a lot because he had high praise for him. Ballard also mentioned talking to him in the indystar. Gil said Ballard was dialed in on this draft and had a very good read on it. If you don’t know, Gil talks to everyone in the league and especially GM’s. And they don’t BS him like say like the guys at walterfootball, they know they can trust him. Well to a point, I’m sure they don’t tell him everything. They just don’t use him to spread mis-information. His take on players is usually a reflection of the teams opinions.

Did Gil have any read on which direction Ballard is leaning position-wise?
