To be fair the example you gave in Butler is exactly the type of guy Ballard has brought in.

And can we go ahead and temper our expectations for Sheard now? I know what he was signed to do but there's a reason he wasn't given a $60+ million contract, we shouldn't expect him to get us 10+ sacks a year.
