2024 Chargers Roster Build Discussion - Transactions | Post Draft Discussion

[richpjr]

Denver is going to trade Surtain and valuable picks to someone to get their qb, this is inevitable.
so if it can help us, why not?
why let Surtain go to Arizona or anywhere else?
He's exactly the guy you happily pay a second contract to.
and sending JJMC to Denver is ideal because Jim and Jesse knows every inch of that man.
Unless, they truly believe he is a special qb, that is the only reason I don't consider trading with Denver.
Joe can't/won't do his job "scared". He has already shown he's not afraid to make bold, unpopular decisions (Allen).
I say do what (Joe) thinks is most beneficial for us and ifnthat means taking the risk that you arm a division rival with a franchise qb, so be it.

Why not? Because I don't want them to get one of the good QBs.

More like 50

I anticipate 65-70 receptions next year for QJ.
70-75 receptions for Joshua Palmer.
50 receptions for Hayden Hurst.
Maybe 40 receptions from a 4th rounder (like Rice)...

The offense will be balanced... Greg Roman style.

IMO, last year was weaker at the top... but had good depth into the mid-rounds. Puka went in the 5th round.
Although small in stature, I had Tank Dell in the 3rd. One of the reasons I had him higher than most was the fact that he was a polished route runner.

I had QJ in the 2nd round... not because he was polished... but because he had traits. He needs to be developed. His stop/start, acceleration, and YAC are the traits that will make him good. We didn't use those traits to our advantage at all last year.

Last year seemed to have a lot more smaller recievers and this year they're are a lot of bigger guys and stronger depth from top to 6th round.

But that's not up to us.
They can just as easily trade with another team to get their QB.
If we somehow knew we were their only chance at a trade up, well sure, leave them holding their dongs at the door. Haha.

Things are gonna get wild. Like a Clint Eastwood spaghetti western wild. Hallowed John Ford rules will be broken.

Yep, thunderdome in 6 days

We'll need a ref here.

If we make a good trade for ourselves, how is that helping a division rival ?

DEN is desperate to get a QB, whether it is with us or someone else.

On the other side of the coin is Surtain's contract and the ramifications thereof.

Add up all the pluses and minuses, and I would want a better trade partner.

NE might take this deal.

Really all we can do is prepare for all contingencies and see how the board looks when we are on the clock.

I don’t understand the reflexive fear of trading with a division rival. They are trading with a division rival too. Its all about the deal.

i’d love for DEN to send us a haul of picks, add in PS, and then pick another shit QB like the last half dozen QBs they’ve picked and set them back another 5+ years lol.

If they are trading up with the Chargers, it’s for McCarthy and who knows McCarthy best. Not only that, if you could deplete them of two 1st round picks, Pat Surtain and another 3rd this year, that would set them back a few years.

To add another dagger to the Broncos if you could make that trade, would be to sign Justin Simmons. Could you imagine Surtain, Simmons and Derwin in the secondary for this team. That would be a pretty good start to have a dominate Defense.

WR Prediction-

3rd round Malik Washington
6th round Cornelius Johnson
FA Tyler Boyd

Would a WR room like this give anybody confidence? I would be happy with it.
QJ
J. Palmer
T. Boyd
M. Washington
C. Johnson
DD

I also like Bub Means in the late rounds as well. Hoping he goes undrafted. Only reason I would take Cornelius Johnson ahead of Means is familiarity.

Chargers hosted WR DJ Chark for a visit.

Chark, who had 35 receptions for 525 yards and five touchdowns in Carolina in 2023, would profile as a potential starter for LA. With one 1,000-yard season in seven years in the NFL, Chark, 27, functions strictly as a deep threat. Even if the Chargers take a top wideout in the NFL Draft, Chark could see significant playing time in Greg Roman’s run-first offense.

Chargers need at least 2 more WRs. I'm guessing they will draft one and sign one after the draft.
