I'm not a big Pipkins fan. Having said that, a big assumption that everyone (including me) is making is that the new regime think Pipkins needs to be replaced. What if they think he can be "fixed" with better coaching and aren't planning on spending a high pick to replace him this year? This is more a devil's advocate type of a thought, but maybe they see something we don't. Or, maybe not and he is just an expensive swing tackle/extra linemen in short yardage.Comment

Well, there is one pretty amazing TE in this draft AND if you would've told me last year that we would be in position to draft him this year I wouldn't have believed it was possible, now that we have access to Bowers most everyone here is taking it for granted...why not just give Justin what Patrick has had all these years...as good as the TE class was last year, there is no way Bowers wouldn't have been the first one off the board in 2023...I don't think he makes it out of the top ten...plus I know that the next Keenan Allen or Puka Nacua is out there waiting to be drafted by us somewhere in the 3rd, 4rth or even the 5th round...but everyone here wants one of the top WRs at 5, that or an OT is what seems to be popular here on the forum...Originally posted by Xenos View Post"The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

I remember discussions last year about 2023 TEs and how Bowers next year slays them all but we’d never have a shot at him as he’s guarantee Top 10. All nods around the room.Originally posted by Fouts2herbert View Post
now 2024 and he’s not worth a T10.
I see a few TE’s that may not be all pro best but are upgrades to the roster later in the draft. I’m fond of Theo Johnson - he looks like a blue collar Harbaugh kid inline with upside down the field. He lit up combine drills, a lot more athletic than I expected. Reiman is a latter Day3 flier, he’s got gorrila blood and will get after it.
But there is 1 Bowers. LAC can’t draft every elite player in a draft, there are lots of ways to improve the team. tbd if JH2 see this as more important than other elite options - I would not bet he is there at an 11 trade down.“Less is more? NO NO NO - MORE is MORE!”Comment

cutting or trading Pipkins after June 1st creates 6.5mil in cap space and like 2.5mil in dead cap, so what's another 2.5 mil when you already have 52mil in dead cap? it's not like the Chargers are stuck with Trey in 2024, if they want to continue to clean house they can afford to now that they've cleared up additional space...so if they keep him it could be a couple of reasons, they don't necessarily like the player but they don't want to create additional holes to fill OR maybe they think that they can work with him, only they will know which reason is the one if he stays...so keeping Trey is not necessarily an endorsement either...Originally posted by richpjr View Post
BTW, besides moving Trey, there are still other small moves that are available to clear more cap, they can clear 5mil by restructuring Herbert and it doesn't hurt the team one bit, Herbert restructures are going to become a yearly deal anyways...they can still cut Morgan Fox and save 3.5mil, cutting our punter would save another 2.2mil and this draft features a couple of great punting prospects...so those three small moves can create an additional 12.2mil in cap space in 2024...I think Trey could have a small market after the draft if someone wants a player with starting experience and wasn't able to grab one of the OTs in the draft like they wanted...not sure what a team would give up for Trey but it would be 2025 or 2026 and low, like 6-7 rounder but it would clear up cap and open the door for a stud rookie tackle or perhaps someone already on the roster..."The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

They are not cutting Trey. Have you seen the backup roster behind him? Do you remember when Sarrell briefly came in at OT last year? I thought TPB wanted Joe to build more depth? nah - I’d bet against it.Originally posted by Fouts2herbert View Post
I would ditch our punter though - with you there. Bring a half dozen UDFA punters into camp that kicked in college and you’ll find one thats better, guaranteed. Fox - idunno what they see as the plan with him. He’s not a lot $.“Less is more? NO NO NO - MORE is MORE!”Comment

JP has proven himself to be a nice #3 receiver, with trouble staying on the field.Originally posted by Boltnut View Post
With no other competition for catches other than butter fingers, 72 catches is very doable;
hell, Seyi Ajirotutu could have caught 72 passes from Rivers with such receiving options.
Is it helping your team?Comment

I've been telling boltnut not to get too mad when they roll with Trey, primarily because of all the holes that they already have, but if there is anything these guys have proven very early on is that they are not going to be deterred from doing anything that they feel helps them create their vision going forward...I'm not saying they are moving Trey OR keeping him, but I think it could go either way after what happened with Keenan...would not be surprised if they drafted a OT, or if they kept Trey, or if they did both...Originally posted by dmac_bolt View Post"The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.
