2024 Chargers Roster Build Discussion - Free Agency | Camps | Player News

Hoping you’re right. Travis Benjamin never did. I’m still haunted by him running by himself to the EZ when PR long pass went in between the breadbasket.

I’m still haunted by him running into the end zone for a safety from his own 20 after catching a fucking punt. TB was no rookie when he came to the Chargers, he doesn’t get a rookie exception

LOL! Malik wants a 4.28 because that's what he thinks he ran...!?

One can dream. Isn’t it the opposite? Proday time is slower

U had me nodding my head until u got to Spiller...I still think we can go RB fairly early, in rounds 2-4...one of these dudes:

We don’t even know what they have in Spiller because the coaching staff was trash the last 2 years as far as Oline. I’m a bit bullish on Spiller until I see him not perform/play under this coaching staff. He’s still only 22 I believe. I would love to see him come out of nowhere to play a much bigger role this year as opposed to the last 2 years.

I was going to say something bout that but didn't want it to sound like making excuses for him. The kid had to learn a lot because he was being asked to do a lot. He didn't look as bad toward the end of the season though.

Doesn't fit the narrative... be careful.

But you're right. It's not nearly as bad as some want to portray.
With the 21-personnel we'll run 50% of the time next year... it makes no sense to draft yet another 1st round WR.
Which WR sits the bench 60% of the offensive snaps...?

Get the trade-back! #11 RT Fuaga. #23 LB Edgerrin Cooper. #37 DT. #69 CB. RB and WR in the 4th round. TE in the 5th round.
Ready, set, attack! Run the MF'ing ball down their throats. Hit them deep when they cheat. Smashmouth offense, Warhammer defense.
We're done finessing ourselves to death. Time to accept the obvious.

During the 2012 Crabtree had his best season. He was a YAC monster that year 544 yards out of his 1100 yard season.

Roman’s probably best year, and he’ll utilize Johnston the same way.

I expect QJ to have a bignyear

[wu-dai clan]

Like it or not, QJ has to be seen as somewhat of a deep threat, now that he is past "the type of rookie season many have."

[Critty]

Hortiz roster already looks like a team trying to win at line of scrimmage. Telesco old Chargers roster look like trying to win with big WRs and QB with shabby protection. Telesco thinks you need a few big plays to win games. You need WRs who can catch 50/50 jump ball. Hortiz thinks you need to kick your opponents butt at the of scrimmage to make it easy for you skill players. Hortiz is building a championship physical football team. Telesco was building a championship flag football team.

I agree here. We can see the old fields being plowed under and new seeds being planted …

Yep...Good old "Backwards Butterfingers Benji"...

Kinda why I been high on Bowers. He is a perfect fit for a Y TE. Get an OT in back of first rnd and WR that can stretch the back half of the field in the 3rd or 4th rnd.

Wouldn't be upset with Fuaga and Coop either.

As soon as QJ improves his ability to get open and his catch rate, AND loses the butterfingers, he'll earn more respect from me...right now, he's near the bottom of the league:

In comparison, Slayer was in the top 10:
