2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[wu-dai clan]

Some here want us to sign Gus Edwards at RB and he has little pass catching ability. Im for signing Antonio Gibson if we get a vet RB. Cheaper, all around RB and has some size (223 lbs). Cant speak at all about his pass blocking though.

Then we can draft another RB.

I like Vidal from Troy and Ray Davis from Kentucky.

[Charge!]

Man, just hoping we get a good deal n 2024 picks for a trade down, just solidly where I’m at.

love it if it were just a few spots down, with someone wanting a QB, then we take Bowers and have our next great TE!

the top 4 teams this year have great TE's...the top 2 have the best 2 TE's..... the best offenses Chargers have had have had great HOF type TE's..... we have had crap at TE since gates!

Edwards is a good RB but rarely healthy which is bad for a RB... and bad for chargers

Trading back just a few pics, collecting an extra one or two pics, and still getting him would be fantastic. But then there’s that threat of someone jumping up in front of us as well. Very excited to see how this plays out,

You're not drafting him to be your receiving back you're drafting him to pound the rock! You bring in another back with him like Lloyd or Blake Corum for that!

It’s February, its ok to dream of a back that can do both.

Back to round 1...if Im predicting, Im thinking maybe not WR...however...just got done doing my due diligence watching the receivers, top 3. Folks, DJ aint wrong...Odunze is incredible. Mad ass hands and ball skills...kid doesnt need to get open...you throw it anywhere near him, and he catches the damn thing. I was floored...I had watched a couple Washington games, and was impressed, but the whole body of work? Some crazy contested catches, and circus catches to boot.

Really different watching this wr class, compared to last year. I personally think this staff goes a different direction...but man, that kid is gonna be a bad ass receiver in this league...

OK.
I'll play this game.
The top four teams have great CENTERS.
KC...Creed Humphrey.
DET...Frank Ragnow.
BAL...Tyler Linderbaum.
SF...Jake Brendel (Kyle will tell you this guy is vital !)

What does this add up to ?
Stay tuned.
Clue to wu's puzzle.

I'm enjoying the whole "all four teams in the conference championship games have great tight ends" argument. Mark Andrews was out with an injury in the seven games leading up to the AFC Championship. The Ravens went 6-1 without him, which included their Divisional Round playoff win over the Texans. Baltimore's one loss without Andrews was the final regular-season game, which Lamar Jackson sat out of.

I like games, too.
The 3 best teams had the #1, #2, #3 defenses.

Edit: The #3 and #4 TE's didn't make the playoffs (Engram and Hockenson).

Yeah, get ready for a D-heavy draft. It’s needed.

Okay, so let's trade down from #5 to #8 or #11, pick up some picks, and go either CB or DT in round 1, then pick up our C in early round 2...

BFTB has us picking Texas DT Byron Murphy @#5...I know we need help at DT, but sounds kind of early for him...
