based on the above, my first round cluster for the Chargers would look like >> D. Brown, Biadasz, Wirfs, Epenesa or YGM

I think next year is a more than decent group for the QB class. I can see 3 to 4 players that are 1st rd prospects.
If this year is an up and down injury filled year as it already started out .... Getting a top 10 to 15 pick could land the QB of the future. Be close enough to move up.
Who has it better than us?

am also keen to add an RB to my first round cluster, and think he's a surefire bet along w/Derrick Brown and Biadasz for us if we were to land any of them, and as am more and more convinced that D'Andre Swift is in a class by himself compared to the other backs coming out this next year, and.... suspect that we may be drafting in the late teens round one ??5/11 Fuaga, 37 Kamari Lassiter, 40 Sinnott, 67 Bralen Trice, 69 Cedric Gray, 105 Jaylen Wright, 110 Braelon Allen, 140 Joe Milton, 181 Khristian Boyd, Tylan Grable, 225 Daijun Edwards, 253 Miyan Williams

2020 NFL Mock Draft: Jordan Love replaces Jameis Winston, Chargers plan for post-Philip Rivers era
The Buccaneers can't extend Jameis Winston after the start he's had to the 2019 campaign

Follow Chris at @ChrisTrapasso
While they weren't all his fault, Jameis Winston threw five interceptions in a divisional loss to the Panthers in London on Sunday, and they came during a game in which the former No. 1 overall threw for exactly 400 yards.
In a way, the 36-27 loss encapsulated the Winston era in Tampa Bay. Lots of passing yards, porous defense, too many sacks and too many turnovers.
Right now, the Buccaneers have to be thinking quarterback in the 2020 NFL Draft.
The draft order below is based on records and strength of schedule. Position rankings are based on my Top 32 Big Board.
Now, to the picks.
NFL Mock Draft
Round 1
Round 1 - Pick 1
Justin Herbert QB
Oregon • Sr • 6'6" / 237 lbs
Same pairing as a week ago. Too perfect. Herbert has learned how to limit mistakes but still flashes a few ridiculous throws each game.Projected Team
CincinnatiPROSPECT RNK
7thPOSITION RNK
2ndRound 1 - Pick 2
Tua Tagovailoa QB
Alabama • Jr • 6'1" / 218 lbs
After "winning" the tank bowl, the Dolphins are positioned to land one of the first two picks. In this scenario, quarterbacks go No. 1 and No. 2 for the first time since Jared Goff and Carson Wentz in 2016. Tagovailoa doesn't have a big arm but is accurate from inside the pocket and showed against Texas A&M that he can make big plays off-script.Projected Team
MiamiPROSPECT RNK
3rdPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 3
Andrew Thomas OL
Georgia • Jr • 6'5" / 320 lbs
I seriously doubt Trent Williams plays for the Redskins again, meaning they need to address left tackle. Thomas has emerged as the most likely first offensive linemen off the board.Projected Team
WashingtonPROSPECT RNK
8thPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 4
Jeff Okudah CB
Ohio State • Jr • 6'1" / 200 lbs
The Falcons defense is an utter disaster right now, meaning they'll be glad to go with an elite defensive prospect in Okudah.Projected Team
AtlantaPROSPECT RNK
1stPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 5
Jerry Jeudy WR
Alabama • Jr • 6'1" / 192 lbs
The Jets have gotten quality contributions from some lesser-known players on defense this season. The offense needs a boost. Jeudy can give them that.Projected Team
N.Y. JetsPROSPECT RNK
9thPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 6
Chase Young EDGE
Ohio State • Jr • 6'5" / 265 lbs
Young is far and away the best edge rusher in the class, and the Jaguars would love to pair him with Josh Allen on the outside of their defense.Projected Team
JacksonvillePROSPECT RNK
22ndPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 7
Tristan Wirfs OL
Iowa • Jr • 6'5" / 322 lbs
Cleveland's offensive line is porous. Wirfs can play either tackle spot or maul at guard. Easy pick here.Projected Team
ClevelandPROSPECT RNK
12thPOSITION RNK
2ndRound 1 - Pick 8
A.J. Epenesa EDGE
Iowa • Jr • 6'6" / 280 lbs
Back-to-back Hawkeyes inside the top 10. The Dolphins edge-rusher group needs a full-blown makeover. Epenesa is a large, powerful, refined defensive end prospect.Projected Team
MiamiPROSPECT RNK
21stPOSITION RNK
2ndRound 1 - Pick 9
Kristian Fulton CB
LSU • Sr • 6'0" / 200 lbs
The Giants have shown signs of life on offense with Daniel Jones on the field. But the defense has been average at best. Fulton is a twitchy corner with lockdown tendencies.Projected Team
N.Y. GiantsPROSPECT RNK
6thPOSITION RNK

Round 1 - Pick 10
Joe Burrow QB
LSU • Sr • 6'4" / 216 lbs
While this selection would not signal an immediate end to the Philip Rivers era, the Chargers do need to plan ahead at the quarterback spot. Burrow would be in line to sit behind Rivers for all of 2020.Projected Team

Round 1 - Pick 11
Jacob Eason QB
Washington • Jr • 6'6" / 227 lbs
If the Titans want a change in quarterback style from Marcus Mariota, look no further than Eason, a strong-armed gunslinger.Projected Team
TennesseePROSPECT RNK
NRPOSITION RNK
NRRound 1 - Pick 12
Tee Higgins WR
Clemson • Jr • 6'4" / 215 lbs
The Broncos have started to see the potential in big, athletic, second-year wideout Courtland Sutton, so they add a similar type pass catcher in Higgins to bolster the receiver group.Projected Team
DenverPROSPECT RNK
10thPOSITION RNK
2ndRound 1 - Pick 13
Jordan Love QB
Utah State • Jr • 6'4" / 225 lbs
His film is a roller-coaster, but Love can make outrageous throws from unique platforms and arm angles. The Buccaneers can't extend Jameis Winston at this point, and Bruce Arians is primed to be in a weird spot next season. Quarterback has to be the pick here for Tampa.Projected Team
Tampa BayPROSPECT RNK
NRPOSITION RNK
NRRound 1 - Pick 14
Javon Kinlaw DL
South Carolina • Sr • 6'6" / 310 lbs
With Kinlaw and 2019 third-round pick Zach Allen, the Cardinals would have two, young, versatile defensive linemen who can thrive anywhere up front. Time to start building the defense, Kliff.Projected Team
ArizonaPROSPECT RNK
5thPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 15
Neville Gallimore DL
Oklahoma • Sr • 6'2" / 302 lbs
The one piece the Cowboys defense is clearly missing? A penetrating defensive tackle with power, and that is the one-sentence scouting report on Gallimore.Projected Team
DallasPROSPECT RNK
15thPOSITION RNK
2ndRound 1 - Pick 16
Mekhi Becton OL
Louisville • Jr • 6'7" / 369 lbs
The Rams offensive line has taken a clear step back in 2019. Jared Goff under pressure can occasionally be no bueno. Becton is a towering, super-strong tackle prospect.Projected Team
L.A. RamsPROSPECT RNK
19thPOSITION RNK
3rdRound 1 - Pick 17
Lamar Jackson CB
Nebraska • Sr • 6'3" / 215 lbs
The Colts seem to know their identity on offense but have to find the right pieces on the other side of the ball. How about another long cornerback in Indianapolis?Projected Team

Round 1 - Pick 18
Isaiah Simmons S
Clemson • Jr • 6'4" / 230 lbs
Unit-changing pick here for the Raiders. Simmons can cover, get to the back on outside runs, and blitz better than any linebacker in the country.Projected Team
OaklandPROSPECT RNK
4thPOSITION RNK
1stRound 1 - Pick 19
CeeDee Lamb WR
Oklahoma • Jr • 6'2" / 189 lbs
The Lions have to get younger at the receiver spot. Lamb does everything well, and for a bigger wideout, he's amazing after the catch.Projected Team

13thPOSITION RNK
3rdRound 1 - Pick 20
Henry Ruggs III WR
Alabama • Jr • 6'0" / 190 lbs
With Ruggs, Curtis Samuel, and D.J. Moore, the Panthers would boast the most dangerous combination of youth and athleticism at the receiver spot in the NFL.Projected Team

K'Lavon Chaisson EDGE

In order to get a premium QB w/o trading the farm to move up we have to hope that the Chargers win 4 games at the most this season... or else we are going to have to mortgage the future like the Chiefs did for Mahomes. Luckily it appears that the team has reverted back to the pre-2018 season form... finding ways to lose games in the 4th quarter. It sucks to root against your team but we really need a QB of the future and at least two stud OL... preferably a blue-chip LT. The landscape of the NFL can change so quickly now... Niners went from total jokes to legit contenders between seasons. We need to tank and get our QB of the future and finally bring in beef along the OL. We have been screaming for the latter for a decade and it never got fixed.... that is on TT.

LSU quarterback Joe Burrow has gone from a giant long shot to one of the favorites to win the Heisman Trophy.
Burrow and Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts are co-favorites to win the Heisman, at 5-4, at Caesars Sportsbook.
Burrow, a senior in his second season as LSU's starter, was listed as long as 200-1 in the summer but has thrived in the Tigers' new spread attack. He has passed for 2,484 yards and 29 touchdowns, with only three interceptions, leading LSU to a 7-0 start.
Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

I'd have a hard time drafting a QB before fixing that OL. Here's a novel idea... Get PR a real LT and see what he could do for a year or two. Cut Okung, Perryman, T. Davis, and Mebane. Then go spend that $34.5 million savings on a center, guard, RT, and 1-tech.
Round 1: LT
Round 2: LB
Round 3: RB
Round 4: WR
