Is that how it went down? It was a curious move because they just paid Cousins a bag. But this approach worked pretty well for GB. ATL's offense is pretty stacked and putting in a proven QB like Cousins will allow them to maximize and evaluate those pieces immediately. Meanwhile, Penix develops in the background. And they bought themselves 3 years to find out. Plus, they did get Turner as well, who I think was their #1 target. -

I have to say, I do agree that a lot of GMs are on a similar level as far as skill and talent. That's how they got to where they are. Some will be more inexperienced than others, some are more aggressive while others are passive. I think there are a lot of varying philosophies on running an NFL team compared to running a normal business. I don't think everyone's board is the same. I'm sure there are some overlap especially at the top. But in the middle I would imagine it's far more varied. There's only so many scouts, so many days and hours, and thousands of players to evaluate. They aren't going to catch them all. But, I will say there is always going to be some luck and chance probability involved when it comes to the draft. That's just a truth in life itself. -
I meant whether or not he's the pick. Going into the draft they probably have scenarios of how to pursue the existing roster based upon if a player falls. Example, if DeFo is near contract time, the falling of Murphy begins a thought about not resigning DeFO more strongly than what you'd think if you thought he would have been gone by pick 15. I'm not saying specific here about the Colts and Defo. What I'm saying is that these are the types of things that happen with all 32 teams, and Ballard can't tell you that another team is going to execute a strategic roster plan...and not snipe or will snipe based upon a player falling. Instead of not knowing how this plays out, Ballard telling us what other teams will do would be described as knowing how this stuff will play out. -
Do you mean meddling? Sure, I mean its reported that Arthur Blank screwed his GM by wanting Penix. Tough break for the new GM, and it makes it harder for Blanc to evaluate him I'd think. I hope the new guy doesn't get blamed for stuff that was out of his control.

They aren't adjusting anything with the 15th pick. The board is the board and they've agonized over every scenario for months
