2022 Official Bolts Draft Superthread

And they also bring in comedians and hip hop singers to liven things up, because apparently discussing football in the middle of the draft isn't interesting enough...

good point, haha. i don't have NFL network due to AT&T, but i wonder if they keep it straight football talk on their coverage. of course ESPN is going to turn it into a carnival - anything with mike greenberg turns into a carnival/gossip show. i am tired of that guy. he was great in the early days of mike & mike.

Lol Don’t let events distract from the show. Their job isn’t to chronicle history, their job is to attract and hold eyeballs. I have no idea if they are on the mark there, we are obviously not the majority because they are way off what we want them to broadcast.

Better an elite OG like Zion, than a Flukeresque reach at OT...

Yup

always about advertising dollars and cents, never sense
of course it is about sucking in more viewers, football fans will watch regardless

To those who don't think the Chargers have good WRs - think again, it's one of the deepest, if not the deepest, corps of WRs in the league. Staley obviously believes so to - not a single player drafted is a WR and there's only one WR among the undrafted signees.

When healthy it's a good group but Im not sure I'd call it tops in the league. Top 5 maybe? Idk...most expensive perhaps.

A top WR squad would be scoring TDs to win games when it counts. Ours ain’t there yet, somewhere in the middle..

On top of that this draft proves they will run the ball more as well.
More time of poss also keeps the defense off the field.
If Spiller, Everett, Palmer, and Parham are who we think they are, there aren't enough footballs to go around.
Horvath and Leddie Brown/JJ could tote the rock as well behind a potentially great run blocking O Line.

???? Huh? A team with a top WR never loses a game that counts?

Those main four you name better damn well be who we think they are or we’re looking at another 9-8 and no playoffs.

We lost too many. 9-8, .500 in one-score games (those are typically won by a WR making a clutch catch last time I checked…).
