2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

Sanders looked horrible on the sled, thats a low bar. The guy that obliterated the overmatched sled was the MINN kid - spann-brevyn / brevyn span / whatever - he coulda taken it to the end zone. I thought he was gonna toss it across the field after driving it 10+ yards lol. He looked pretty good in other drills too - would be a great inline TE with some extra ability.

Overall, most TEs did not do well on it - the sled beat most of them. they failed the basic technique requirement of stay low and drive parallel to the ground. Mosts of them lifted under the pad which then dug the back sled leg into the turf. The field coach told them all to stay low and drive straight before they went.

Theo Johnson having a good combine. He is the TE I like over guys like Sinnot, His size, measurables and combine results almost identical to Jimmy Graham. Canadian boy!

Benson ahead of Jaylen Wright who ran 4.44. Wouldnt have guessed that

Guerendo from Louisville a nice sleeper...4.33 wow

He is excelling at more than one explosion drill.
Plus receiver too.

Corum 4.53. Not bad but overall I dont want him, a lot of miles on him and he is not big. Don't think he will be best of this class in NFL. If we have to get a Wolverine i would rather have Wilson or one of the defenders

I have Nabers as my #1 WR. I have no trouble with him at #5.

I figured them to be the 2 fastest. Wright Got a slow get off. Estime is the surprise for me. Two 4.72s.
Would love to get Benson or Wright in the draft.

Bucky only weighs in at 192 lbs.

Wright runs a 4.38 second run
Corum wasn't bad. 4.53 a good time for him imo

I agree on Estime. two 4.72 s. I know he is a power back but we dont need any more plodders on the Charger offence. We need some speed and explosion.

Is there a 2nd group of RBs coming? I want to see Allen, or is he sitting out?

[Velo]

I think you got it right. Some would put Nabers ahead of Harrison. If we don't trade down one insider says we're taking Nabors.

I'd be happy with that. Or Bowers. But prefer Nabers (or Harrison, but who I'm pretty sure Ariz is going to grab at #4). Not a fan of drafting an OT (Alt) at #5. Already have two 1st round OL picks. Drafting OL in the first round does not translate into championships. The Chiefs don't have a 1st round pick on their OL. In fact, their weakest link on the OL is the highest drafted (Jawaan Taylor) I think, a high 2nd rnd pick. There is going to some good value in the 2nd and 3rd round at OT in this draft, if they want to replace Pipkins.

Seems he is sitting out. Maybe at his pro day. Seems many are sitting out. They blew thru that group doing 40s. Edwards didn't run but see him doing drills to name one.
They announced someone pulled a hammy but didn't catch the name

Problem with Corum is he hasn't returned to the speed and explosiveness he had after his knee injury which makes him a big question mark for me.

The more i am perceiving from combine talk I dont think the Chargers are taking Alt for 2 reasons. He is not a Harbaugh type right tackle as he is more finesse than a mauler, and I think if they take a tackle it will be because they traded down to do it.

I also think Fashanu could excel at the combine and with more ceiling could challenge to be first tackle drafted.

Nabers would be just fine but I have to say Odunze is a stud and is very intriguing. He could light up combine if he performs. With his size, and beastley contested catching, if he breaks 4.4 look out.
