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

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.

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.
