You know what makes me grumpy? That the Chargers' talent base is so low and so poor, that cutting T-Billy is viewed as an issue. The three mentioned here -- Kelley, Pipkins, and Hill -- along with Johnson, Stick, McKitty, Facyson, and a few others really do not belong on this team. It just, again, reflects on the poor work done by Telesco and his staff over the last few years in finding and building a true talent base.
I've refrained from saying this, but this is a transition year. This team might get close to the playoffs, but this is a two year project. This team needs to improve its talent and needs another draft -- with Staley and his coaches making recommendations -- to do so. Next year, Herbert will be incorporated in this offense, and the team will hopefully have a deeper talent base to be successful. This team should be good enough and stacked enough where cutting a T-Billy is the norm, not a surprise.

Guyton...speed.

Parham...makes plays downfield.
Ekler is more quick than fast.....
Guyton is ONLY guy on offense with break away speed....
Speed kills.... We need at least one other WR as fast or faster than Guyton..... so we can go 5 wide and in case of injuries...etc....

I'm kinda with you, this is a two-year project. But as I glance over this roster, this is really gonna be a reality check for some folks here regarding this season. Playoffs? Unless this coach is another Boss Ross, I don't see us even coming close. I just want to see some progress.

I said all along Pipkins would make the team. They didn't have anyone on the team to take that spot. They may find one from other teams cuts but until then, Pip is on the team.THE YEAR OF THE FLIP!

How does it make the Palmer pick worse - he is probably the third best WR on the roster. Doesn't it make it more of a need if Johnson didn't make the roster to have Palmer.

Right. The Chargers don't win that game against the Raiders later in the year without T-Billy and the routes he run. I remain confused, other than I agree, it must be some character issue.
I would guess T-Billy wasn't running precision routes and didn't know where to be too often.

Everyone knows only 40 times count on the football field, it’s what makes Keenan such a subpar WR1.
Remove speed, and field gets smaller with DB's much closer to KA, MW, EK..... etc......
receivers with quickness and speed also get open quicker..... which helps the OL and QB....
a strong armed QB like Herbie can fire a bullet into smaller openings.......less time in air...less time for defense to react....
