    this last year. Thus my comment. Everett is a better option than drafting a TE in round 3. But lets say the guy drafted is a better blocker than Everett. Who's our receiving threat?
    We need a lot of different positions, other positions need upgrades.

    It's not getting done in one year. But this coaching staff should improve the level of play, even with the guys on the roster. What I know is we may not make the POs, but we're
    not finishing 5-12 either.
    We'll make the playoffs. Staley did and I absolutely believe 2024 will be a far better team.

      Also just last week I posted on here Imagine Justin Herbert with a running game, and I added that we don't have to imagine it because we are about to see it! I love how Roman said the exact same thing!

      We need to seriously look at Audric Estime, Jalen Wright, Braelon Allen, MarShawn Lloyd and Blake Corum!

      Lastly we have to really be prepared since Minter is our DC to see some of Michigan's players drafted by us in this draft! The players coming up already know his D well and Harbaugh made the comment at the press conference that the Chargers are going to be the farming team to Michigan's players! I hope we seriously consider Mike Sainristil, Zinter, Junior Colson, Corum, Roman Wilson and Kris Jenkins!
      Im expecting to draft a few Wolverines and bring in more UDFAs who know the system. More value to the practice team as well. Especially year 1.

        might want to take a look see @Ben Sinnott.... most have him slotted day three atm, but can't see him not making his way down into day two by draft's eve.

            an NFL scout basically referred to him as a Sam LaPorta lite, and gave a compare of Dallas Clark ??​

                  Staley didn't make the POs 2/3 years. When he did we lost in historic fashion. I'm not as optimistic as you until I see the roster.
                  However I have no doubt we'll be better next year than we were this.

                    The good teams usually have one TE that is mostly used as a weapon and another that is used as your prototypical TE. Chiefs are an example. Kelce is usually out when the Chiefs call a run play. Drafting 2 TEs is not out of the question although I think it's more probable, they bring in a FA and draft one.
                    Time to put my money where my mouth is: Hampton will be better than Jeanty!

                      With the many needs we have we're not drafting 2 TEs. I can see Sinnott as a blocking TE, maybe even FB. But not in round 2 or 3.
                      Who's is our receiving TE? FB and pure blocking TE go maybe in round 5,6 or 7.

                        Not doubting that we can or will use two TEs. Just saying we are not drafting 2 TEs. We have too many needs at other positions.

                          Sinnott is a receiving TE, that also happens to be able to play inline.... he's a combo TE, sorta like Henry
