1) Because of the way the Chargers laid out OTAs, head coach Brandon Staley said players received three to four times the full speed reps that they would normally receive in an offseason program: "Most OTAs, if you look back historically at the other places we've been, you get full speed and a guy may get 15, 20 reps, and it's just not that many plays," he said. "We were able to get 65, 75 plays, so we were able to get a lot more, literally, rep'd. We felt like we could push it from an installation standpoint."
2) Staley said that over 90 percent of the new defense has been installed to this point, adding that the remaining 10 percent is "a little more designer" or game-plan specific. He acknowledged he wanted to "push it" from an install standpoint and that the coaches have done a nice job of teaching it.
Awesome video. It reminded me of one of my least favorite parts of practices. When you are under center you put your hand under the center to receive the snap and you actually fan out your hand palm down and lift up a bit so the center knows you are there and is ready to hike the ball. Well when you are in your gear its just football. When you are in shorts, putting your hand there is a whole different ball game let me tell you.
Edit: OT but my OTHER "LAC" just closed out the Jazz in 6 games down 25 in the third, oh and starting off 0-2 in the series, backtoback series, first time ever in NBA history
oh and without my dude Kawhi the past 2 games....
Post-minicamp 53-man roster projections for Chargers

Jobs weren’t won or lost during offseason workouts. Instead, they will be determined in training camp and preseason action, which begins next month.
However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t do an early speculation how I believe the Chargers roster will shape up.
Without further ado, here’s a glance at my much-too-early, post-mandatory minicamp 53-man roster prediction.
Quarterbacks (2): Justin Herbert, Chase Daniel
Misses the cut: Easton Stick
Running backs (4): Austin Ekeler, Justin Jackson, Joshua Kelley, Larry Rountree III
Misses the cut: Darius Bradwell
Fullbacks (1): Gabe Nabers
Misses the cut: Hunter Kampmoyer
Wide receivers (6): Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Jalen Guyton, Tyron Johnson, Josh Palmer, Joe Reed
Misses the cut: K.J. Hill, Jason Moore, Austin Proehl, Josh Hurst
Tight ends (3): Jared Cook, Donald Parham, Tre’ McKitty

Not a bad projection there, Ninja. I can see Bankrupt Bags getting the cut. And I really like Stephen Anderson's YAC, so that's a tough cut. Noticed u also have the Bolts cutting Stick...getting rid of the, ahem, dead wood, huh? Is Stick eligible for the PS? Do u think he might get poached?
