newest Rivers rumors:

[Classic]

I hope we draft Melvin Gordon with #17 pick, extend Rivers for 3 more years, & wait until NEXT year to draft PR's ultimate successor---Connor Cook (MSU).

Oh, & as long as I'm dreaming----I hope the Chargers get a stadium deal done here in SD!

No to Cook. No to Mariota. Yes to Hackenberg!

I would trade up and draft Leonard Williams and Gurley at #17. Tank 2015 and grab Hackenberg and WR in 2016.

Philip Rivers trade rumors have been bouncing around for a while, but we're starting to get a better idea of what the San Diego Chargers want in return.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on NFL Live on Tuesday that it would take two first-round draft picks -- maybe more -- for the Chargers to part with their long-time starting quarterback.



Two teams have a pair of first-round selections in the upcoming draft: Cleveland (Nos. 12 and 19) and New Orleans (Nos. 13 and 31). With Drew Brees in place for two more seasons and apparently not on the trade block, the Saints aren't likely to want Rivers.

However, it's no secret the Browns have issues at quarterback, and Rivers would certainly be an immediate fix for a team that has had at least two starting quarterbacks every year since Tim Couch was under center in 2001.

So while a trade involving Rivers, who has one year left on his contract, and the Browns would seem like a nice idea for Cleveland, it wouldn't appear to make much sense for San Diego.

Two picks in the top-20 doesn't sound bad, but it likely leaves the Chargers, who have made it clear they're very interested in Marcus Mariota, without a quarterback. The chances of Mariota dropping to No. 12 appear slim at best, so the Chargers would probably need to make another move to have the opportunity to draft the former Oregon quarterback or Jameis Winston.

The Rivers rumors will continue to fly and probably intensify as more details emerge and we draw closer to this month's NFL Draft.

Yeah, Cleveland is a great place to raise your kids. LOL! Close to the South, as well.

I've never even been to Cleveland but a friend of mine moved there for work and when he came back to visit recently was actually pleasantly surprised with the city and now plans on staying. But he is a stoner, so take that with a grain of salt.

Glad to hear this, we should definitely get two first rounders for Rivers or at least the Titans 1st this year and 2nd this year and 2nd next year....after that call Chip Kelley and bleed the Eagles dry for Mariota.

Why stop at that, we could get a second for Gates and a First for Weddle...

I visited Cleveland this summer. The part I visited was very nice.

Rivers is a straight shooter, except for shooting down rumors.....

everybody likes telescos and mccoys decision making and plans, except for when it may involve trading Rivers...

I was listening to Scott & BR earlier and Scott claims he felt there was some sort of beef between MM & Rivers towards the end of the season. He claims that MM felt he wasn't getting any credit for the Chargers early season success and aledgely he started to change his vibe and wasn't letting certain players & or coaches do their thing.

Funny thing is why didn't Scott bring this up when he aledgely saw this secrete beef going on ? He said he'll have to go back into his notes to find where he wrote this down. Somehow now that these Rivers Rumors are popping up left and right, He's claiming he saw the writing on the wall way before these rumors. I'm calling bull shit

That dude can get annoying sometimes...I hope he doesn't think we're gonna forget about this and comes back with his notes about the coral between MM and Rivers

Either way I don't believe we'd Trade Rivers , But somehow these rumors keep growing new legs. Yah I know the liars month thing but this sounds like it's got a bit of truth to it.
