I just meant that he has had plenty of draft capital and cap space to build up a team. That he wasn’t restricted in those avenues. Some of that is to his credit because he is shrewd at draft day trades. Just in his first two seasons, he had a top 15 pick, #6 pick and (5) R2 picks. By the end of his 3rd draft, he had been able to draft (10) top 64 players. That’s a lot of capital. And even since then, he’s had plenty of capital and hasn’t really had to pick late ever. Also, the cap was in good shape as well when he got here. And actually, Luck retiring would have opened up a lot of cap space as well. So he’s had the financial ability to get players. I do agree that IND might not be the most attractive spot for FAs, but plenty of teams deal with that. Luck retiring had a huge impact, but still, the resources have been there to be better than a 4-win team after 6 offseasons of roster building. When Ballard got here, he said “it will never be about one guy” and now it is about one guy. And Ballard has preached about sustained success and delayed gratification. I think it’s safe to say the fans have yet to get either. By his own words and goals set forth, he failed. He even said he failed. Will he adapt and have more success? It’s certainly possible. And I hope he does.

That is one thing many aren't mentioning, he has said he wants out of Baltimore so he may settle for less money playing for another team. Once you say you want out, coming back is a bad look. -

I have unfortunately - I do it because I don't want to come off as being arrogant or Mr know it all. I have been right a lot but also wrong at times. Me saying Matt Ryan would be good and we would make the playoffs still steams me, but our whole season was a shock! I never dreamed our O.Line would struggle or Taylor and Leonard would be injured a lot.
