I would be very surprised if Ballard traded picks from the top 3 rounds for any player. Seems like he's confident that he can uncover comparable (or better) players in the draft.

I like Ford just fine but don't want to use a 2nd AND pay him big money to find out if he can play as a down lineman.

This + I'm concerned that he'd be a liability against the run

I think what fatdt said is more along the lines of ballards thinking. I doubt ballard gives up a high pick then has to give up big money

@AdamSchefter
A pre-free-agency surprise: Rams released starring inside LB Mark Barron, per league sources.


Not sure how much of an upgrade he’d be over Anthony Walker?

He isn't a scheme fit for zone MLB.

@RapSheet
Source: The #Ravens have cut Eric Weddle. Wow.


Well at least there’s another option on the Safety market.
