On today's episode, Stephen Reed of Stampede Blue joins as we go over the Chris Ballard era. Putting it under a microscope, what's the best moves Ballard has made so far in Indianapolis?
Lots of forward-thinking trades have put Indy ahead for the long-term. From Quenton Nelson to DeForest Buckner, plenty of pillars to the organization have been added through draft trades.
Even though it was a windy road to get there, adding Frank Reich as head coach has been an outstanding move from Ballard. Without Reich, would Indy be in the spot they're positioned in right now?
Ballard also sticks to his values. Not spending big on outside free agents while looking ahead to future salary cap flexibility has kept Indianapolis in a win-now position. In 2020, Ballard finally cashed in some of those chips before big paydays for the likes of Darius Leonard and Nelson arrive soon.
