Okay, Its a hypothetical. If another GM looked at AD, and looked at the Colts needs, they probably would have picked AD FOR THE COLTS at that point too. Agree or not, fine, but the idea that no other GM actually picked another WR for his team doesn't really address that hypothetical. Thinking that GMs are pretty much interchangeable, except for that 10% that are actually worse than the others, how many GMs had Tom Brady ranked something higher than 180 as a prospect, and how many GMs that actually were looking for a QB in some capacity had him ranked higher than 6th round on their team boards? Its the same thing with all "late round gems" . Fans seem to want attribute success of the late rounder to the prowess of their GM over the other 31.

I have a feeling he will be worth it too. Expected him to be drafted. Underrated pick up imo. -
No, that is not what I am saying. I am saying 52 on his board and the players he is fine with at that point in time may not be 52 on someone else's board and his penchant wanting to take the chance on AD is not the same as another GM. So, your broad brushing that all GMs would have done the same at No.52 rings hollow to me, even if you won't admit it.

Are you saying that Ballard read the landscape and decided it was safe to trade down to 52 and still get ADM? Nothing in his interview supports that. Whose to say that if Ballard trades down once again because he thought no team would take a WR in the 2nd, that a team like SF now sees value in ADM, and possibly reevaluates and pushes to trade Deebo or Ayiuk. Teams, draft boards can change as the draft is happening, and Ballard is right to say that nobody knows how this stuff will play out. He doesn't know that another team won't trade up to 53, or 47 for that matter.
