Love the pick. One of the highest floor players in the entire draft. Protect Herbert for years.
In regards to Feiler staying at LG and Zion at RG, Norton was bad but what a lot of us haven’t talked about is that Schofield was just as bad at RG. Feiler-Linsley-Zion will keep the interior of the pocket together and giver Herbert the option to actually step up into the pocket which often wasn’t an option with Schofield in. Zion is also a high processor and will be much more adept at dealing with the stunts a lot of teams threw at our right side last year. Yes, RT is still a worrisome position but having significantly better play at RG will be helpful to whoever is at RT, as we saw when Aboushi was in there.

Not thrilled with hearing Trey Pipkins and Storm Norton are our only options at RT (again). Really hope they drafted someone better than either guy. It shouldn’t be too hard to find someone better even in later rounds of this draft.
Both Pipkins and Norton would have trouble finding a job with any other team if the Chargers cut them, they are that bad imo.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
