2022 Official Chargers Season Discussion

[ghost]

Interesting but I would rather have 6'4" 211 4.38 40 time than a 5'9" 179 4.38 40 for a NFL WR. That said a new Steve Smith wouldn't be bad.

Straight up: If I'm going WR in the draft, I'm going the best WR in the draft, IMHO. It's Jameson.

Hypothetical: The Chargers go into a 3-wide formation in 2022: Mike Williams, Keenan Allen, & Jameson Williams. Which two WRs do you double-cover?

Hopefully at least three on that list get taken care of in FA.

Saw this and think maybe we should resign the guy. I remember liking him out of college.

OL counts! I was pleasantly surprised to see TT sign Linsley, Feiler and Aboushi in FA then draft Slater and lo, we were a top 5 offense.

Cin got their 2021 OL starters, LT 2019, LG 2019, C 2016, RG 2020, RT 2019.
Cincy's key 2021 adds appeared to be FA DLs Trey Hendrikson, Larry Oginjobi, CBs Chidobe Awuzie, Mike Hilton. 1st rd draft pick Jamar Chase.
We could use DL - CB and another top WR also.

The reason the Bengals could take Jamarr Chase with the 4th pick is because they did the work in free agency, with the names above to build out the defense. Also they signed Riley Reiff as a stop gap RT.

So for the Chargers to take a WR like Jameson - means Telesco will have had to do the work in free agency to make sure he at worst, more IDL depth next too Justin Jones (presuming he is back) and maybe a CB as an upgrade to Chris Harris. Personally, I think if you bring back Mike Williams - than Jameson or Olave are just luxuries with the 17th pick and personally to go RT or CB - whatever you didn't get in free agency. But I will see what happens in free agency first

And again, the Bengals were very smart in who they signed on defense - Telesco - take note of the age.

Telesco might want to also explore trading Kenneth Murray for a teams player that isn't working out in their system. I know the Bengals got Hill for Price - -not looking for that. But maybe just a trade of two players draft in 2020 that might need new homes. The obvious choice is Jaelon Reagor from the Eagles but who knows - maybe there is a match out there.

Keeping Mdub does not preclude drafting Jameson...KA cant play forever, and Guyton could be upgraded...couple years the three would be Williams, JW, and Palmer...thats a nice collection of recievers that span the spectrum of skills. If you think the combo of FA and day 2 picks can address RT and defense, then you absolutely consider an offensive playmaker with the first pick...something I usually am against...but when you see guys like Hill, Kelce, Kupp, and Chase being the heroes that turn the tide in the playoffs...you cant ignore the chance to add that element to your game.

My thing is offense wasn't the issue with the Chargers. Sure adding speed is not a bad thing. And the Chargers need it on offense But they need to fix RT, and the defense first

So if you take care of business in free agency with two of the three: IDL and CB plus bringing back your key free agents, thats fine. But if not, WR at 17 is a luxury.

I truly can see Reagor for Murray as a possibility - one teams not so good pick for another teams not so good pick

Bengals got the better of that deal. It's not like Hill was unproductive.....like Price has been,....and Reager.

You forgot punter! I think that’s even a higher priority if we resign Hopkins.

I wrote the exact same thing in the Staley thread - not that I wouldn't want a Tucker, Butker or the kid from Cincy but I think Hopkins is good enough. Ty Long needs to be replaced

Brady retiring - I wonder how they will rebuild the roster now. Does Carlton Davis make sense to spend big money on
