Colts’ Chris Ballard Ranked as the NFL’s Best Drafting GM Since 2015

According to NFL.com’s Gregg Rosenthal, Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard is the NFL’s ‘best drafting GM since 2015’ in a ranking of 23 general managers (excluding the league GMs who have only been on their current job for one draft or less)—in utilizing each’s respective draft capital:

1) Chris Ballard, Colts

Best pick: Quenton Nelson | Round 1 (No. 6), 2018

Worst pick: Quincy Wilson | Round 2 (No. 46), 2017

Ballard’s reputation as one of the league’s best drafters is well earned, especially after coach Frank Reich joined him in Indianapolis.
