Who said anything about Ballard being swayed by a scouting intern? I certainly didn't. My comment about a scouting intern was in response to JAFF's comment that seemed to imply that "being in the room on draft day" was the only thing that could make one an expert, which is ludicrous on its face, because there are some people in some of those rooms with almost no experience, and let's not forget that Ryan Grigson ran several draft rooms, and he might be the worst drafting GM ever. I challenge anyone to read The Beast and tell me that Dane Brugler doesn't have as much or more knowledge as an area scout who is "in the room" with 1-5 years of experience.



This is what Kiper said about Mahomes. Seems pretty spot on to me. As for Dilfer, he was an NFL average starting QB and would've been way more valuable than Trev Alberts was.

Griggs was an absolute fucking joke as a GM. Let's not confuse his sorry ass with Ballard. Ballard knows what he is doing.

Kiper gave the Chiefs a C plus in that same draft. If he was so high on Mahomes, how the hell could he give them any lower than a B plus.

As far as Alberts goes, yeah, terrible draft pick. But Dilfer was not an average QB, he was a below average QB. Hell, even when he won a SB, they told him, just don't lose it for us. Let the defense take care of this. Personally, I don't want a QB like that.
