2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[Chargers8491]

Mack is gone anyways. Joey still signed so we'll see about him.
I assume he will be back unless he plays half a season again but they restructured his deal so don't know his numbers for 2025.
You never know but I just don't feel Edge rusher in the cards as an early pick in this draft.
Besides QB, Edge is the strongest possition right now.

That is one of the Hallmarks of Baltimore's drafting. They draft for the future. Meaning they knew when guys were leaving so they draft replacements early if it made since and not wait till it becomes a need. I don't know if the Chargers can afford to do that now but if Hortiz is true to BPA Verse has to been in the conversation. I just don't have a clue as to what the Chargers draft board looks like and how they have these guys ranked.

Relax TPB.
We will get two WRs Herb can cook with.
JaLynn Polk.
Some of these guys have Tyler Boyd-dare I say Slayer traits.
Strong hands-route runners. ~ 4.55 Forty.
Question...do QJ & DD give us enough at deep threat ??

I understand that Cooker really tore up the Ivy League.
He's more like a poor man's Josh Palmer.

Nothing special about JaLynn .... ceiling is a career 3rd wide out.

Let's just roll without receivers .... not continue with the farce.

I speak both of skill set and talent level.
Steve Smith loves Polk.
He is slotted ~ @ #69.

wu has many mud, late round nuggets at the wide receiver position
We have less than one month to explore all the nooks and crannies.

Brenden Rice is kind of growing on me. I'm also liking Llyod at running back. Wonder what input McDonald has on these 2.

What do others think of Keon Coleman? He ran a "slow" 40 time of 4.61, but I think his speed on the field is more than fine. I'm wondering if he falls to the third round. If so, I would seriously consider him there if we don't go wide receiver in the first two rounds.

4.6 or higher used to be a death knell for receivers.... ??

I do believe you are on to something.

Did anyone see that one handed stab Pearsall made in a game, and then got blasted by the db? 2nd greatest catch I have ever seen, just behind the OBJ catch.
Moves like he's 5'10" out there, but he's actually 6'1".

true dat.... that is some crazy azz shit,

This draft class of LBs is nasal trimmings.
I see a late vet, ready to strap it up for ST duty.

done did that already.... Mr. Troy Dye,

[Boltinloudguy]

Bub Means is my late round to UDFA WR that I’m looking at. 6’1”, 212lbs, low 4.4s, big catch radius. I’d like to see what he could become with a couple years under this coaching staff.

[Boltnut]

I stopped at the 8:00 mark.

Tired of watching him not use those long arms to his advantage;
tired of every Tom, Dick and Harry sticking their hands into his chest first before he attempts to use them,
and then he shoots them out wide, unconsciously, as if he's going to give them a bear hug.

He stands too upright and gets no leverage in run blocking.
At times, he seems lackadaisical and not quite aware of his surroundings.

NFL comp: Trevor Penning

A big project with tools.

Speaking of Penning, Chaincrusher should be allowed to swing on by for draft talk every year.
Give him a total of 90 minutes of online time in April so he can't filibuster entire threads.

Yeah, my impression as well... I was trying to be kind.
At least Penning was nasty. This guy doesn't strike me as Harbaugh/Roman/Devlin kind of guy.

I think the Rams ignore those kinds of things.

[Chargers8491]

Kimani Vidal, RB, Troy is another RB I'm liking as well. He is 5'7, 213lbs. He is fun to watch. I'll leave his highlights below.
