It’s so fucking stupid that you keep saying this shit. It makes you look retarded.

I get that you wanted Stroud and you want to blame Ballard for not getting him. But no GM in NFL history could have pulled that off. Vince Fucking Lombardi couldn’t have done that.

You're the idiot. The Bears didn't trade to #1 last year, they got the #1 pick because they traded with Carolina in the 2023 draft. The Colts could've made a similar trade and gotten CJ Stroud, they had a more valuable asset in the 2023 draft in the #4 pick vs. Carolina's #9 pick. If Ballard really wanted #1, he could've swung the deal. It likely would've cost Pittman, but oh well, you don't worry about things like that when trading for a franchise QB.
