Why not? And while we're at it, might as well hire a psychologist to work up deep-dive Psych profiles on the top 25 players we have targeted in the draft...we need to weed out the potential headcases and whiners...

The following is part of a comprehensive but not limited list of questions I'd ask:

• Have you met the person you are dating?
• Have you ever deflated your balls or an opponent's balls or perhaps both at the same time?
• When you hear the term "make it rain" are you checking the weather forecast or are you at the strip club?
• Show me your fist pump when asked to play on special teams.
• When craving for crab legs how would you obtain them?
• Give me 3 words to describe the Raiders.
• Have you sang in the church choir or been called a choir boy ever?
• How do you prevent choking on 4th quarters?

Best interview ever! I'm glad you left out questions about the players' mothers.

3-words for Raiders:
I hate them
Kick their asses
Liars, cheaters, crooks
Get a haircut
Tom Telesco sucks

Edit: Stop Maxx Crosby

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of interviewing multiple people who have had dealings with the prospective draft pick.

Thanks for posting. I still have the Lions as my target for Mack.

As for Bosa - the Cardinals tried to trade Hopkins last year, went nowhere so they cut him. I think a June 1 cut makes sense as it doesn't accelerate his cap hit further onto 2024 and gives a bit of leeway with that. Plus Bosa has a $7m, roster bonus due the third day of the league year -- and he probably is not waiving that unless he has some guarantee. Not sure the Chargers should take on $7m of cap space unless its something like the Broncos got for Miller.

As Alex said in another tweet - this is what he thinks they should do and I agree:
Allen - extend
MW- release
Bosa - release with a June 1 unless a trade happens that makes it worthwhile to trade with a pre June 1
Mack - trade
Kendricks: release

Chargers would have about $40m of true cap space (after you allocate for draft picks, 53 man roster, practice squad and in season slush fund)

Hortiz has stated several time that the decision on the FA will be made based on productivity. This leads to me to believe that KA and Mack will be back and Bosa and MW are likely gone. The only way I see them trading Mack iss they get a trade they can't turn down. I also can't see Horitz leaving more holes that need to fill.

Hortiz also might use Mack for draft capital and cap space that he can use on other areas of need. I understand if you move on from Bosa and Mack -- that would the depth at Edge pretty thin - but if you look at LB, IDL, CB - also pretty thin

The next week or so - the moves will start happening as players will be released, contracts extended and can start to see his vision.

Reading today the Bolts have a chance to draft Harrison Jr. and/or trade for Tee Higgins.

What is the Tee Higgins trade?

And if you draft Harrison, Odunze or Nabers - you probably don't need Higgins

I would take the rookie over Higgins

Trading for Higgins would be an awful idea unless it’s for a low pick and the Bengals eat some of that cap hit.

Doesn’t seem like a very realistic scenario.

This one doesn't make sense. He is not better than Chase. And you have the 5th pick if you really want a WR

The WR for five years they draft will cost much less than Tee Higgins would for even 2 years probably
