It is pretty rare that a 5th round pick stays on a well run NFL roster past a year or two. For every Robert Mathis there are 100 Nate Hairston's, David Parry's or Jonathan Newsom's.

Ballard obviously felt like he needed to get in front of JAX to make sure he got the guy he wanted. The only reason to move up is if you WANT him.

Trust in Ballard; trading a 5th to secure the services of a guy he obviously wanted is a no brainer.
GM wanna be

I forgot about this guy, great pick

With pick 69 in the 2020 NFL Draft, the #Seahawks are selecting OL Damien Lewis

They could've gotten a better player by staying put, as evidenced by Cleveland drafting a better player at 44.

It was a waste of a 2 and a 5, not just a 5.

Not always. I was relatively happy with last year's draft. I rarely had a problem with Polian drafts until the late 2000s.

Hmmm, let’s see.....Ballard or Dam? That’s a tough one.

This is another classic Ballard guy. Extremely smart, extremely productive, durable and reliable.

I did not realize that he ran the fastest 40 of any running back.

Seriously? A waste of a 2nd.

So, you are betting right now that Ballard and his staff have selected Ron Dayne part 2? Trent Richardson the 2nd? That the pick was completely wasted.

Dang, why don't you have a job with an NFL team? Able to predict the future!
