Well since he has been here Ballard has drafted 8 wide receivers. 4 high in the draft, 4 low in the draft.
All 8 were still in the league until this season, Dezmon Patmon is still a free agent.
4 of those 8 are still on the team. 3 of the high draft picks and 1 of the low picks.
The other high draft pick was signed by the Giants as a free agent.
Pittman has been better than all the WR's drafted below him and better than a few above.
Pierce had a better rookie season than all the WRs drafted below him and a few above.
All with sub-standard QB play. I would say that's not bad.
