i don't think it was an accident that we ended up without MW and Keenan - they looked at the $43M in savings and looked at all the WR talent in the draft (and WR cuts after the draft). however, if we take 1-2 WR's in the draft, that means that some holes have to be filled without the draft.

I still think if Dobbins looks like he checks out in his medicals, he is worth signing very cheap. He can always be cut if he doesn’t have any juice left or put on IR if he gets hurt again and the Chargers now have the money this year for a one year prove it deal. My prior post was just being realistic that he is a gamble. High reward, high bust type thing. If felt like some of us thought we were getting the Dobbins of his rookie year and that is not likely. Also Achilles is pretty tough to come back from as a RB.
TGLike, how am I a traitor? Your team are traitors.

This is actually the year to take chances on players like Dobbins. Who knows, if he stays healthy, look at who you might be getting

But many of the signings were short term deals: Bozeman, Fulton, Hurst, Poona Ford, the two linebackers. So even if they sign Dobbins to a prove it deal - RB could still be an option.
And maybe Hortiz is waiting post draft to really see what else the team needs before making other signings. As maybe Dobbins or a vet WR makes more sense post draft
