Funny you brought this up. I just listened to an interview Ballard did today with Rich Eisen. He asked him if he has given any thought on how many quarterbacks will be taken before our pick and how many does he think. He said sure we go through those evaluations. It helps us with for planning purposes. He asked him how many. 4 or 5 or 6? He laughed out loud at 6. He said Rich if it’s 6 we will be so excited. Let’s hope so. He also said the draft board is not yet set. Won’t be until the night before the draft. He also said he has had multiple conversations with other GM’s concerning the draft. Preparing themselves for opportunities that could take place. And they will continue up until the draft starts. He said trade conversations won’t really materialize until you are within three picks of any trade. Giving you time to finalize it. Interesting interview. Oh he pretty much ruled out moving up for Harrison. Going up into the top of the draft would be very costly for him he said. Thinks he’s a great talent but he thinks he’s pretty much out of our reach. -
I personally wouldn’t touch Williams with a 10 foot pole. He seems like a distraction and cancerous. He may be Uber talented but I don’t feel like he is a winner, and don’t feel like his heart is in it. I think he gets the bag and just sets it on cruise control. There is absolutely nothing to base this off of aside from my gut feeling. Maye Daniels Penix Nix McCarthy Maye is your prototype passer and I think his deficiencies are easily fixed with good coaching. Daniels seems the most limited to me, proficient and will be very dependent on where he goes. Will always have a soft spot for Penix, he throws such a pretty deep ball. His 40 time should have opened some eyes. Nix is probably the safest pick IMO. I think he’s got the tools to fit nearly any offense. Has the athleticism, arm talent and I think he’s got the between the ears to excel in most offenses. I see the appeal with McCarthy, he was as unselfish as they come allowing the run game to shine instead of checking to pass plays. I think his ceiling is a solid game manager. -
I'd imagine he's going bald. Most men his age usually are when they start sporting the caps 24/7. -
Did I say something dumb? Maybe give reasons why one should trust and agree with Ballard's team building philosophy going into his 8th season. He's been pretty average to, dare I say it, below average so far into his tenure.
