He didn’t. Too savy for that. But if the media is off in their boards (which isn’t all that uncommon). He seemed to think Ballard had the right read on things.

McAfee had Ballard on his podcast yesterday. Some interesting notes:

1) Yesterday, the front office had a 3 hour meeting with scouts where everyone made a case for their guys. Then Ballard met with Reich and Irsay to detail the draft strategy.
2) The front office has worked through scenarios about players they would be interested in trading up for if they start to fall. It might just be them being fully prepared, but it came across to me that it was absolutely something they would consider for the right player.

Ballpark prediction. Christian Wilkins, Burns, Sweat are targets for trade up. Oliver too, but don’t see him falling.

Not sure about Sweat, but could see it for Wilkins, Burns, or Oliver. I still think Wilkins could fall a bit if he makes it past Atlanta.
