Not my point - only saying that when you sign one of your own free agents to a big contract, at least you have the security of knowing the player well. When you trade for someone else's player and then pay him big bucks, there's an added element of risk because you just don't know other teams' players as well as your own.

I think we overpaid but he is a heck of a talent.
Him, Houston, Autry and Turay/Banagu on passing downs couls be pretty good. 3-tech powers this defense and we now have a 3-tech of note. Hope we have space for D.J. Reader or Javon Hargrave for NT. |

For the record, I’m not saying Buckner was a product of the system or anything. Just pointing out the concern with projecting other teams players. |

I freakin love this trade!!!!! Love it!!!!!
How long have we waited for Ballard to make a big move? Well 3 yrs... SO How long have we waited to have a dominate 3tech?

I don't know. There are some good players in this draft and 13 is a damn high pick. Plus Buckner plays on the best d-line in the league. He will not have that in Indy. We just made him the second highest DT in the league. Here are his stats compared to Donald.
Donald Buckner I guess its a risk no matter the path you take and we needed a dominate DT to make this defense function. Still hate giving up that high of a pick. |

From Margus Hunt to Buckner. What an improvement. I can see Buckner playing both NT and UT sharing time with Autry and Stewart.
Tyquan Lewis is now on thin ice. |

Busy, busy, day at work so I just saw this news. I absolutely love it! We got a damned pass-rusher!! Dude is a beast as well! $21M is expensive but hell, the broken running back Houston just got for Hopkins is making $14M. Salaries are just going to keep going up. Master stroke by Ballard if it works out. Fills a desperate need and puts to bed the "who to draft at 13" talk. He's gonna sell some jerseys, too. Awesome!
