Pick
13
Los Angeles Chargers
DeVonta SmithTrey Pipkins (or a rookie picked later) can get the job done. Smith has the strong hands, body control, intelligence and quickness to excel in the slot in 2021 while Keenan Allen and Mike Williams work outside. Then, if Williams leaves as a free agent after the season, Smith can move outside if necessary.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
The Wasted Decade is done.
Build Back Better.

The only circumstances I want to see Pipkins out there is if Bryan Bulaga is struggling through injuries again. Please plan wisely TT.

Draft players that make your overall team better. Often, that means looking at your weaker positions. Along the OL... you're only as strong as your weakest link. We spent a lot of money on re-building that IOL. It would seem a waste to trot Trey Pipkins out there @LT. The overall strength of the OL becomes whatever Trey Pipkins can muster (54.8). Sure, you could help him with TE or RB... but now those guys aren't available in the pattern. They're not stretching the defense... and that does no favors for the players that are out in the pattern. Your best offenses have quality OT's that can hold their own and put players into the pattern... Chiefs, Bucs, Saints.

I love Smith though. Herbert with KA, DS, MW, JC, JE would be nearly impossible to cover.

His legs are the size of my writs.
