2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[Boltjolt]

There was no doubt to me we wouldn't win another game after Herbert went down. Said it back then that we wouldn't.
The team is that bad....but sitting guys like Keenan helped make sure,....im sure he could of played in they games meant something. I'm hoping they sat Joey because they want him healthy when they trade him.

Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, Pennix, Alt, Fashanu, MHJr, Odunze, Nabors, Bowers, Latu, Turner, Verse, Koolaid, Fuaga...that is 15 players. We could trade back to 15th, and get one of those players (obviously not one of the QBs) and I would be tickled pink with the player, and the haul...

I say trade back a little and still get Bowers (say 7th or 8th) with whatever team wants the 4th QB...but I like all those players, and the further back we trade, the higher the haul for a team that needs a could roster flushing turnover and fresh start...but we will see.

Then why wouldnt basketball be 10 against 10? lol

Technically Its 11 on O vs 11 on D. and vice versa. Its 22 total, not 22 vs 22.

In practice its called the 7 on 7 drill....no DL or OL. DBs and LBs against QB , 2 RBs, 1 or 2 TE depending on your scheme and 2 or 3 WRs. Its a passing drill. So no it isnt 22 vs 22...and frankly ive never heard it that way.

my point is football teams have 22 starters basketball teams have five, and depth is far more important in football as well as fixing the weakest links with players of need.

The draft order, without playoff teams:



No rotation in the rounds, Chargers will always pick in the 5th spot each round.

I see Falcons, Jets, Vikings, and Saints all possible players for the 4th QB Pennix...I guess we could pressure the Giants to throw us a third to flip with us, instead of trading to one of their competitors....so yea...a lot of potential trade partners, and plenty of good players in top 15 to make it worthwhile....I take Bowers all day long....but a trade back would be really, really smart...maybe we can have our cake and eat it too...time will tell...

I do not see Kyler or Daniel Jones etched in stone.
Penix can rise in the next 24hours.
There are still lots of variables and trade possibilities in play.
It's a long way to late April.

I got excited when I realized we may be choosing Marvin Harrison Jr, Bowers or Nabers. Tough decisions ahead.

I usually don't care too much about the National Championship game, but this one has two coaches that the Chargers should be looking very hard at. Obviously Harbaugh, but DeBoer could fit into that sweet spot for the misely Spani. I'm hoping for a great game by the QBs to help push down the 'right' player to #5, who ever that is.

Cardinal brass, including Gannon have said they are comitted to Kyler. They will be all over Harrison

Ed McGuire was seen right there in the owner's box with Dean today.
The Earth is about to quake.
We do not fear our future.
The challenge is accepted.

Bowers or Nabors for sure will be there
Many have said Nabors would be top WR in many NFL drafts. He may be too good to pass up at 5. Fast and always open

The top 3 WRs in this draft are significantly better than the top WRs last year

[Lone Bolt]

We really are in a good spot...even if somebody leapfrogs over us for the 4th QB...and we lose out on a trade back opportunity...we still get our #1 non QB player in the draft...whoever we think is the best...we get THEM...very exciting draft, at least, as a consolation for this shitty season....and we got a new coach and staff to look forward to finding too! At least our offseason is gonna be fun....lol

Lotta players to watch in this one too...for you oline enthusiasts, check out Troy Fautanu on Washington's left side...tenacious tackle who will probably measure out (lengthwise) similar to Slater...not the polished technician Slater was coming out, but maybe more tenacious, and just as athletic, he would make a great RT for us...and if he measures out as a Tweener as I suspect...may be attainable in the second.
