2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[DerwinBosa]

Instead of Kool Aid in the first round what about CB Mike Sainristil in the 3 Rd?

I like him a lot. He's a competitor. I won't be disappointed at all if we're able to pick him in the third round.

[C'monchargers]

For those who are in the favor of moving Salyer to RT position to try his hand, in the event of Harbaugh being the coach of the Chargers it wouldn't surprise me one bit if we pick up Zak Zinter in the 3rd round if he can't recover in time to put in work at the combine or pro day. He is becoming a notable value at that draft position. And he can chase a championship on the field with his coach where he won't have the opportunity to do so in this years college playoff.

Film on Trey Benson - RB with 4.37 speed who may be available in the 2nd round when the Chargers pick!

[Boltinloudguy]

Depending on how he test, but I’m wondering how far WR Tre Harris will move up the board. He’s definitely a player I’d be ok drafting in the 4th or 5th.

TE Caden Prieskorn? Looked him up. Quiet this year but played at Memphis last year and had 600+ yards and 7 TDs. Maybe an UDFA to bring in for competition.


Would anybody be thats upset if they went?

1st- TE Bowers
2nd- RB Benson

Two things:

1. The speed is real: just outraces dbs to the corner who have the angle.
2. He seems to gather himself a bit too much making cuts, but he's 221 pounds.
3. Announcer says right off that he leads college football in breaking tackles - yards after contact?

I was thinking 3rd, at earliest,
but I was wrong about Jonathon Taylor: and he would be my comp in college.

[SAY OW 55]

As we saw with Jamry Gibbs who I liked and said might be better then Robinson. As we are seeing this season it’s up for debate.

lesson learned if you like a guy. Draft him I don’t care what round.

Kool Aid???? I don’t want to do another Quentin Jammer so I dont know.

Is he sauce???????? Is he Revis????? If not no go with Bowers. I even like the receiver from LSU.


well see how he does against Michigan tomorrow. I’ll have some opinions and assessments.

his speed is real, though he needs an extra step to get up to speed due to his sized. He very linear/vertical in his running - he’s not gonna juke step a lot of pros, it’s just not his game. He’ll be a really strong inside runner that will break some tackles and on occasion where defenders don’t maintain great discipline, he’s gonna pop some big runs. Definitely would add to our roster. I like him around the 3rd, not sure he has Rd 1/2 talent?

I wouldn't but I hope we get extra picks for Bosa and MW.

Speaking of NCAA . Florida St has 5 starters not playing today on offense against Georgia. These bowl games to me are kinda downgraded in meaning because of this.
Can't blame the players but still.

Benson has very good vision. Maybe he is there top round 3. Might depend on his combine.
We need someone like him for the main RB before we draft a scat back. Saw someone say Hire Jr would be his RB.
Cool, as long we we have a Benson or Estime type already.
No way for our #1. Gore is too small.

We do have Spiller too I guess but is he gonna be our #1 RB? Not thinking so.
I also really like Jonathan Brooks but he is coming off a ACL. Iffy to be ready for TC.

Agree - starting with can’t blame the players. It’s an exhibition game that in a catastrophe could cost them and their families tens of millions $$$. if one was my kid, and of course depending on where they appear ranked to be drafted, I’d have to advise its time to prioritize the rest of their life, not one more college game. And if I were a teammate of theirs, who had benefited from their superior play all year or college career - I’d understand and 100% support them. Thats just me, i know how passionate some feel the other way on it.

but it does put asterisks and disclaimers all over the bowl season, can’t “like” that.

Strategery will be important this year,
so we can cover several needs.

For example, I am waiting and looking for exceptional value at RB. There is a deep UFA market coming.

So it's OL/replace Joey/MW early, and depth with the midrounders/late picks we get for them.

There will be a necessity to do this, whatever it is labeled as.

The championship game, how many will not play in that one? Alabama's QB is playing as he is retuning to school but is McCarthy playing for Michigan? I don't think so, but not sure.

Still I do get it for the players entering the draft but kinda defeats the college playoffs when players opt out.

They got ya there then not suiting up for ya lol.
