2023 Official Charger Draft - Post Draft Discussion (Daily Links In OP)

Get a RB late, deepest draft ever

I was hoping for Roschon, but apparently the Bolts had this LB rated higher...

[Xenos]

Damn.....smallish LB

Converted safety apparently lol.

[Topcat]

More of a Tranquil replacement, since K9 has one more prove-it season.

True...gotta shore up our D...maybe RB in round 4-5...

[Xenos]

I'm surprised. Staley hates lbs. I'm more surprised it wasn't another safety

Former safety apparently. Tranquil’s replacement?

[RockyMtnBoltFan]

Is Henley better than K9?

If he has ANY instinct at all he will be better than Murray…

[Lone Bolt]

Looks like we werent the only team interested in Brodric Martin...and he went before Siaka Ika...

[Bolt4Knob]

That and Telescos track record of evidence over the years

its more his track record after round 1 and especially Round 3 is terrible

I can get excited for this Daiyan Henley pick. It’s all comes down to if he can process the assignment at the next level. He got the close out speed, it’s better than that of Trenton. He got the “guns” and upper body build to be rigid and firm to stay balance through contact. Imo it’s an understatement to say having big strong arms is very important for LB’s. Brian Urlacher, Navarro Bowman, kuechly, Bobby Wagner, even Patrick Queen, the list goes on; you can find a LB that is playing and doing ok but you can’t find a stud, hall of famer without some big o’ bicep stopping power.

His tackling shows willingness for contact and not shy away from hitting. To me it’s a mentality thing, some people likes to hit, some doesn’t; has nothing to do with size or built. You can see Trenton like to fly toward his target and often latch and roll instead of really give it a good “ummph”. It’s like watching a pro golfer hitter a golf ball, the compression is different. In 3rd and short situation, you want a stud stud stopper who can thumb.

Better than K9 whiffing...

He started his college career at Nevada as a WR.

Ouch...and if he tackles better than K9, that will be a plus...

[Bolt4Knob]

So the last two picks - we shall see
needed Edge
hoping for TE
but LB fills a ST need

[Topcat]

He started his college career at UNLV as a WR.

Maybe Henley is decent in coverage...
