Polian was better at drafting. Belichick was better at manipulating the roster with spare parts and castoffs in free agency. If Ballard can become a hybrid of the two, minus the cheating, we will have our very own dynasty here.
Note: I am not saying that he will, but that I think his goal is to emulate BB's approach to building a roster, but will be a better drafter.
