I think people know I favor a DE or corner at 15. However, how would people feel if they went Murphy? I know people see it as a strength with Buckner and Stewart. Buckner has just resigned, however he will be 31. Stewart is primarily a run first DT. By drafting Murphy, u could be getting your 3 tech of the future, and they are hard to get. If Richardon becomes a star, it might be their only chance to swing this early in the draft for a position u covet. U could also have a great interior pass rush and therefore affecting the opposing teams Oline and in essence making the D as a whole better. We all know Ballard loves the 3tech and showed that by trading a 1st for Buckner. Could be an interesting wrinkle to the draft. -

I like the bowers pick. Would not have taken kichens. Pearsall or Tampa would have been my pick more than likely. -

Your previous comment was that he's shown no positional bias. I think his bias toward the trenches is a practical bias away from the outside positions. And my thinking is based on a considerable amount of evidence that I think paints a discernible picture of Ballard's team building philosophies. I'm not saying I'm absolutely right about this, you might not find that evidence as compelling as I do. But I think Ballard has shown/told us what he values, and in what order. -
I think people just want something exciting from the offseason. There's nothing wrong with that. I get being frustrated by Ballard's approach. My big point is that I think people talk themselves into the idea that 'this is finally the year when Ballard will make a big move,' and then when it doesn't happen, they come crashing down to earth and they're even more frustrated and upset. The Sneed thing is a perfect example. I never say never, because I don't know. But Ballard trading up in the first round probably isn't happening. Houston has had a good offseason. I'm holding off on putting them in the top tier in the AFC. I want to see it first.
