I was listening to Gil Brandt on NFL radio the other day. He must talk to Ballard a lot because he had high praise for him. Ballard also mentioned talking to him in the indystar. Gil said Ballard was dialed in on this draft and had a very good read on it. If you don’t know, Gil talks to everyone in the league and especially GM’s. And they don’t BS him like say like the guys at walterfootball, they know they can trust him. Well to a point, I’m sure they don’t tell him everything. They just don’t use him to spread mis-information. His take on players is usually a reflection of the teams opinions.
