2020 Draft Prospect Discussion

You obviously don't watch Oregon games. Most of Herberts throws are 0-5 yards. He isn't very accurate with 10+ yards. Like last week. He sucked and finished 14-26 and at one point had seven straight incompletions. If not for his RB going over 200 yards, they struggle to win that game and did still.

He has had a handful of games like that this hear and I've posted that his stats in one game against ASU weren't as good as they seem. He wasn't good.

I have watched him play a few times and came away impressed. I have read several profiles that have him going as the second QB in the draft afterTua got hurt. Since he could very well be available when we pick, I would not be surprised if he was a Charger.

If we pass on QB or OL. Isiah Simmons could be gamechanger on defense.

At OT, how can they not have Thomas and Wirfs listed?

Underclassmen are listed on the right hand column.

Been going back and forth with the creator Jesse for a couple hours. I was completely lost on where the film was located. I would click on the film link and it would bring up the profile. I was expecting to see a video or youtube page. The links are shown here. Really happy this man is doing this for us. I do believe he was behind Draft Breakdown.

Me too...I know what Boltjolt is saying, and to some degree I agree with him...it is a little concerning. One could speculate that his lack of consistently lighting it up was due to coaching, game plan, and personel?
Taking him with our first pick... I am not totally sold...but not against it either. Tough matchup in the bowl game with Wisconsin...I'll be watching that closely. Don't know if we see him in the Senior bowl? And of course the workouts. I hope we do more than just kick the tires on this kid, whether we are serious about a first round QB or not. There is a reason he has been in the mix as a blue chip talent since the beginning of last year...the tools are there. Like you said...it wouldn't shock me if we ended up picking him...I could see us going in a number of different directions...but this is definitely one of them.

According to Daniel Popper, he thinks Rivers is back as our QB next season, the Chargers will draft OL and not likely draft Rivers replacement until 2021. Not sure if that is just his speculation or something he heard from the team, but he seemed pretty sure about it, which was much more definitive than what he posted the past few weeks. Almost makes it sound like he was told something.

I guess we’ll see.

You always like to get a star...and BPA, when it comes to that type of talent, is a way I would like to go in most drafts...but sometimes the needs are just too great. OL is obvious...not so obvious is QB, but I think we will know in a couple of months. Very good prospects at both those positions will likely be there for the taking when we pick. Can't see us passing...unless it's Chase Young. That's generational talent right there, lol...but he will be long gone.

There is an old timer saying my pops used to use, to describe it when someone tried to work an easy shortcut through a tough situation(instead of doing it the right way), or when someone tried to gain far more from a deal than they rightfully deserved...he would say they "tried to cut a fat hog in the ass". I think that is what we tried to do with that line...and it blew up in our face. For the sake of their jobs, I don't think this staff will be doing that this year. The only reason we don't pick oline in the first this year, is if Rivers has truly fallen out of favor, all the way to the top, and they greenlight Telesco to move on. Then it's very possibly a QB. But I'm gonna say no to just about every other position.

Trade off is no big FA signings then, just Rivers + rookies.

Okay, so NEXT YEAR Rivers is REALLY going to ALMOST stop slinging the rock into coverage for picks that lose us games...sigh...

The MO of this team is not to sign big FA anyway.

The downside to Rivers coming back is the 10 million posts complaining about him that you guys will leave in every thread.
