John Dorsey keeps prank calling Colts GM Chris Ballard when he’s on the clock during the draft

This is a pretty good goof.

Every year, Chris Ballard gets on the clock in the NFL draft. Every year, he gets phone calls that could change the complexion of the draft — and the league.

Except for one call.

For the last few years, there has been one call that’s completely worthless. John Dorsey, the former Cleveland Browns general manager and current Detroit Lions executive, has called Ballard for a few year running — just to say hello. Yes, it’s basically a prank phone call.

It’s fun to see goofy antics like this between general managers. This year during the first round, Dorsey called Ballard, who picked up to see if the Lions had a trade offer. They did not. It was just Dorsey goofing around.

I love it. Don’t take the draft too seriously. The pageantry has gone too far anyway.
