    7.2m cap hit for one year
    Probably can get Conner or Edmonds for half the cost plus the Chargers have Ekeler so a compliment more than a "bell-cow" I think would be fine
    Let some other team take a chance on the guy

    Granted - if the price were cheap enough -- a 6th rounder or less

      Keenan wants more space to run his routes.
      We do not play modern football.

        Barkley is an interesting thought. Maybe if the Chargers get that 4th round comp pick. But between the draft capital and cap space for a guy who has been a bit inconsistent and injured, not sure its the right play.

        Plus its not like Telesco to do something like this. Almost wish he would be a little more daring trading a pick for a player and not trading up in the draft or taking a small school sammie though

          Fournette would be cheaper if they want to spend more on RB.

            I think the Chargers could get Edmonds or Conner for cheaper than even a 7.2AAV
            probably Edmonds could be 15/3 (Spotrac shows as AAV of 5.3)

            Spotrac shows Conner at 2.1m AAV

              They would, I'm just saying Fournette would be cheaper than Shaquan who has been inured a lot

                Plus the draft capital it would cost. Let the Giants find another trade partner

                  Fournette has missed plenty of games due to injury too. We already have a RB that misses too much time on our roster. I'd pass on both of them.
                  THE YEAR OF THE FLIP!

                    Trading players is overrated.... they will be cut anyway.

                      There is guaranteed value in late rounds at EDGE, TE, RB , WR.

                      And we have all those picks to use...

                      Draft strategery.

                        There but unless we sign a FA I don't see us needing development guys at Edge and TE without someone there to play and help this year. Rumph didn't play much last year as a 4th rounder.

                          Heyy Roo hope you are feeling well these days... I remember you made this same argument on the ol Chargers message board when I was arguing with you that the Chargers should draft him. Turns out you were exactly right with your assessment and I was wrong!
