2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[Lone Bolt]

Did Caleb’s case for #1 QB draft and Heisman implode tonight? He has been poor the 2nd half too, except for a few moments. I didn’t see a top NFL QB in him last year but I believed the press consensus would promote him up. He had a lot of great razzle plays but he looks like a pipsqueak and thats just not my vision for top QB. I don’t believe in mini-QBs. He’s listed at 6-1 but some say he’s only 6’-0”.

I was very impressed with UNC QB Maye in the first two weeks, haven’t seen him play since. He looks like a professional QB to me. I’ll throw a wildcard late round QB flier for TT to draft - Colorado State’s QB - he’s got an NFL caliber arm imo.

I have watched a bit of both Williams and Maye...I think Williams may indeed benefit from another year in college...work on consistency and judgement in pressure situations. If I was drafting a QB right now, I would definitely go with Maye...

New York's deep defensive line controlled the contest, holding Eagles running backs to 2.3 yards per carry.

Here we go again, line play wins games.

I go back and forth on what position we should take in the 1st. ED, DT or CB. So it looks like BPA at position of need for me. Who’s gonna fall to us.

Maye is a good choice. Williams has shown he folds under pressure. I saw that when he played at Oklahoma.

for me, it's most always players and not by position, and as I don't really see anyone who grabs me on the IDL, and given that we've got two prospects on the ps, am leaning Latu first and w/Kalen King as my CB of choice if that's how it falls, and.... not quite sure where I'm @w/Bralen Trice ??

Maybe the Chargers should of drafted Ot Anton Harrison instead of Quinton Johnston? Last I checked he's the starting Jags RT and is getting better every week. Pretty sure if he was our RT last night he would of done better than the RT we have. I say we should seriously consider drafting a OT this next draft with a high pick if the right guy is there and also a OC too.

Yeah this O line is Not finished.Zion and Salyer don't look as solid as we all hoped and Linsley may be about done.Pipkens I always thought was not up to snuff.

This mock has the Chargers picking 10th and taking Georgia TE Brock Bowers.

Perhaps more alarming is the Broncos getting North Carolina Drake Maye, who is like a clone of Justin Herbert.

Fixed it. (Yes RT Harrison would have been great...)

Joey Porter Jr was my 1st round preference.
CB should be the target this coming draft.
If we indeed draft #10 (I doubt it) then I'd draft CB Kalen King.

[Boltgang74]

CB,Edge,O line and RB this draft.

Yep...a solid C is a big need...

eye like him too, and.... have seen him slotted (deep into) day two on more than one (big) board....
