2023 Official Roster Build Thread - The Initial 53 / Practice Squad

[Formula 21]

Salyer. 6' 3", 321 pounds, 31 bench presses coming out of college. That's a lot of man to handle if you're a DT.

Johnson. 6' 3", 312 pounds 32 reps coming out of college. Another load in the middle.

I love big guards.

there will be more change "out of the gate" than you seem to describe. He will keep a few pieces of Lombo, because some pieces are basically a constant on every team in football. But he's not keeping Lombo's base - Lombo's base rushing blocking scheme flat out didn't work, Lombo's base passing scheme didn't stretch the field adequately or push downfield enough.

There will be a lot of changes right away compared to last year with cracked ribs, torn shoulder Herbert ,no Slater, lame Pipkins, Linsley missing games, top WRs miss a lot of games. Moore will start us more like the healthy 2021 Chargers when MW avg 15 ypc and Guyton was stretching the field.

I forgot. Moore was a QB in Detroit under OC Lombardi. He knows the offense and has clearly said he's keeping the things we did well. Like throw the ball. Has everyone forgotten that Herbert set records playing under OC Lombardi?

Clapp does the simple stuff well, but yes, he's a major step down from Linsley.
MnFadden is a maybe. I like the idea. We signed a UDFA C from Maryland, 6-3, 330 Johari Branch.
We need to develop a C prospect. Now would be a good time to start..

I don't hear a whole lot of, ahem, applause for Clapp...

[DennisR91]

The fact that they let the backup QB go and simply made Stick the backup, makes me hope maybe they see more to Stick than any of us have seen. But, the truth is, no matter who the #2 is he's not going to be anywhere near as good as Herbert.

You are right. Him gonna be ten times better heeeeheee

Gotta love the low center-of-gravity these guys bring. Difficult for d-linemen to get underneath them, and drive them back into the pocket.

Who applauds for a Case of Clapp?!?

Yep...who says u have to be 6-4 to be an O-lineman in the NFL?

Did something happen to Duggan??
