    So a round 2-3 talent guy being in the NFL for about a decade means he's projection was accurate. Just not for TT. Slater was a good redemption.
    Doubt that, he was just drafted too high in round 1. Im sure another team later in round 1 would of took him or early round 2 at the latest. He is still in the league we just didnt try him at OG.

        Fluke still plays at least…overdrafted perhaps and undercoached. Never been very good but could have been worse. Id take what he earns.

          He has drafted more pro bowlers and all pros since his tenure started than any other GM in the league.

            I loved everything about Fluker except his feet. They were just too slow. But the size, strength and meanness were outstanding.
            Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

              Agreed. That was an extremely underwhelming draft class. Only two players drafted ahead of him have had better careers and he's actually had the 8th or 9th best career of anyone drafted in the first round that season. Perspective matters.

                Looks like he's gonna add HC to that list soon.

                ......but needs to outsource the drafting of Kickers. Or institute the Kicker guarantee. For each missed extra point that kicker gets 1 kick to TT's jewels.

                  That's pretty funny. Two kickers signed here have made pro bowls elsewhere, immediately after finding a new home. He finds talent... He doesn't coach them nor execute the plays.

                    My favorite chiefs post game comment, about the fight


                    Things like this make the drunk guy helicoptering his penis on the concourse seem like he's not that bad.
                    Arrowhead sounds like a dump.

                      He hires the guys that do coach them though.
                      Tom Telesco’s Results in 9 years as Chargers GM:

                      - 69-74 record
                      - 0 division titles in 9 yrs as GM
                      - Worst record among all active GMs with same tenure
                      - 6th worst winning percentage among all active GMs overall
                      - 2 playoff wins despite elite QB all 9 yrs
                      - Team still has the same weaknesses (Oline and run defense) that it had when hired as GM in 2013
                      - Consistently puts together horrible depth, expects starters to never miss games

                        TT is part of a team of people that hire a HC.
                        The HC hires his assistant coaches.
