Apologize for misinterpreting what you meant. Purdy didnt just jump out of the sky a 7th round pick ready to start. He had to be developed and Lynch had the correct people there to develop him. Colts, not so much. Ballard hits on some middle round player who become good. To win consistently you need to hit on your first and second round players (players that can be difference makers), and he has been terrible at this as of late. Since the Nelson pick I cannot name one upper echelon player (all-pro etc) except maybe JT. A guard and a running back in 8 years. Not going to win much with that. It has been 9 years of mostly this mediocre shit, maybe year 10 will bring us some respite. I hope.
