Reid shouldn't have been making that decision and Clark has said it isn't the case. But even so you don't fire or ask to push a guy out over how he handles the Maclin situation.
Most importantly, whether Reid or more likely Clark, you don't let Ballard go because you are semi-content with a GM. It's too big a decision to say "eh I'm semi-content". I'm just not accepting Dorsey as Reid's bitch. Both of their histories and how this team has been built says that isn't what happened.

That remains to be seen. If we asked that question in CP's first 3 years we wouldn't have an answer either. There are guys on this roster that could potentially be but that's a long way and jump from here. Dorsey has definitely drafted Jared Allen level players IMO. The other three are monsters but Carl also had 20 years. You could argue Houston if it wasn't for his injuries. Who knows what Kelce, Peters ect turn into. I'm not saying they will be, but it's crazy early for anyone he drafted.
