2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[northerner]

Teo turned out to be basically an average player...and TT paid to move up for him...ugh...

yeah, it turns out his fall in the draft was not far enough (for his playing ability).

Steve Smith liked him and comped him to Aiyuk. I liked his tape and he runs a 4.33. Smith didn't love every reciever he scouted. He flat don't like Johnny Wilson.

Johnny Wilson...6'6"...238#s...? Is that a typo, or does nfl.com have it right?That kid needs to be developed as a TE, lol...

Wasn't sure where to put this but I highly recommend everyone watch this video whether you like BLEAV or not. Watching Lo'Neal and Bucky Brooks cut up is priceless.

And now, to throw another monkey wrench into the QB derby, there's talk of even the COWBOYS ditching Dak and drafting a QB:

They aren’t ditching him but I think it safe to say this will be Daks last year in DAL. That loss to GB finally explained to Ol’ Jer what we’ve all known for years.
I heard that at half time of that game fans were all amassing below Jer’s box in the seats below and screaming en masse at him for the entire half time and that the place was half empty by the start of the 3rd qtr.
Who knows if that true, but I did see all these media tweets and tik tok videos of folks leaving pissed.
It was all slushy outside too. Like it has just snowed in Dallas. All these butthurt fans walking out. Lol.

Useless trivia:

Lol...I think its funny how 11&23 has all but become a foregone conclusion for much of TPB, and how mocks and player discussions reflect that...Im guilty too...

But its a good thing...the possibility greatly widens the player pool to examine...which gives me and everyone else here more entertainment leading up to the draft!

Hell, I did my mock with a trade down with the Cards after they traded down with the Vikings. Now I think that is a 1% chance of happening. I don't think they have any intention of moving off of 4 if the rumors are true they are asking for 3 first rounders to trade back.

[blueman]

Three firsts. Line in the sand.

[dmac_bolt]

he might be kryptonite for a 2nd round pick at this point, but he would be acceptable as a 3rd round pick, and would be solid gold as a 4th round pick. we will see.

reminds me of Manti Teo, he became a great pick once he fell to us (at least on the draft day feedback). if we had picked him earlier, everyone would have said we were dumb.

jmo - we were dumb to take Teo, dumber to take him Rd2, dumbest ever to trade up for the privilege. Way too slow to play NFL ILB - watching him play against big boys in the final was epiphanous. they ran straight at him all night long. Never mind his love for catfish ...

[DerwinBosa]

I think if they end up with #11 and #23
It makes much more sense to spend the higher of the picks on defense and then get offense at 23.

Defense at #11

OL at #23

It's definitely on my mind, especially if Verse and Turner are available. Harbaugh and Hortiz can also go corner at #11--Quinyon Mitchell. But I think at #23 there will be more options for defensive players than right tackles. I would prefer to have Fuaga at #11 and Latu or Kool-Aid at #23 than Verse, Turner, or Mitchell at #11 and Latham or Mims at #23.

All the more reason to get Dak's successor groomed and in place for when he leaves...so, though it's not as likely because Dallas doesn't have much draft capitol, it's still possible for them to move up to some point, maybe even to settle for Nix or Penix...
