Their cap management is what allowed us to get Buckner last year, and which gives us the flexibility to be able to get a QB like Stafford this year. Plus, we have lots of upcoming free agents we'll have to plan for, like Leonard and Nelson for starters.

I cannot see Ballard trading for those guys. He is a patient guy. If he wants a veteran LT I believe he waits until cuts are made or free agency starts. There are numerous ways he could go to get an adequate LT. With his emphasis on the line being the back bone of a team and LT being the most important position on the line, it will be interesting to see how he goes about filling it. I have confidence he will get it done.
