Alot will depend on how we finish this year, which coaches get canned if any? and how FA plays out?

1. In 2013, TT used a 4th rounder to move up for Manti Teo--seen by many as a bust, and an injury bust and a waste of an extra pick
2. in 2014, TT used another 4th rounder to move up for Jerry Attaouchu--seen by many as a bust and a waste of an extra pick
3. In 2015, TT used a 4th and a 2015 5th rounder to move up for Melvin Gordon--seen by many as giving up a lot for a running back who did produce at times, but lacked vision and was easily tackled frequently. He ultimately stabbed the Bolts in the back with his ill-advised holdout
Three trade-ups, not much upside, and all those wasted draft picks...

And one year TT got like 3 players (one that I remember was CB pierre desir) for almost nothing that were former 4th rounders so that kind of makes up for those missing 4ths

When they drafted Tillery, TT claimed at the time that he was the "only" player left with a first-round grade on him...
but I still think the inconsistencies speak more about the defense and gus than the player himself.
To me it’s a no brainer to keep JT through an affordable 5th year and make a decision then
hopefully Gus is long gone by then and we have some film on JT with a new coordinatorChargers vs. Everyone
