That could be Ossai as the speed guy

3/35 seems a lot better than 4/100. The guys on The Athletic podcast are pretty high on the guy as an Edge option

[Whydachargers?]

I was more thinking of how does Hortiz bridge the gap if Oweh leaves and not have to rely on a draft pick. I think Mack is back so who would be a solid vet option to be Edge 3 to allow for a draft pick some time to acclimate.

Greenard is a great idea IMO.

Love the idea - wish they would just release him or take a 6th for him.

Along with several others my initial reaction to rumors of AJ Brown was shock and dismay. But I did have to open up my database and get objective. The dude is a true #1 receiver, something we kinda don't really have right now.

Curious side-note. I thought my data or database included an error. It showed Shaheed played 18 games. But I double checked and in fact he did. 9 w/Saints; 9 w/Seahawks. He missed out on the bye week.

Not really fair comparing a #1 reciever to a guy who was never a #1.

[Boltjolt]

I think Zion and Oweh are going to test the market and get overpaid. I’m not expecting either back.

Don't think Macks motivation is money but we'll see. Last chance to get a ring and it's though to tell what that best team is. Could be us,.....Hortiz has to hit it out of the park.

A poster here earlier today said he'd prefer Rashid over Brown, thus my comparison.

They are both receivers. Both options on the market...so again a perfectly valid comparison.

Rashid is an electric athlete, but he's not even in the same discussion as a receiver. Shaheed doesn't have the chops to be a lead receiver. Brown is getting the focus of the defense, and still posting monster numbers.

Again: I'm not saying I want Brown. But he could be something special for this offense.

Can you please do Brown compared to Pierce. I just want to see those two as well..

I didn't mention Mack I'm up in the air with him. I think he will be back, but who knows. I could see Hortiz wanting to get younger and find a younger edge in free agency that he can control with a multi-year year deal and then draft one.

[Chargers8491]

Jags are expected to move on from WR Brian Thomas Jr. another good WR that will be available.

OL under contract:

Rashawn Slater - starter LT
Joe Alt - starter RT
Tyler Biadasz - starter OC

[Bolts4ever213]

Getting a better center before free agency is nice. Wasn’t going to be too hard, to get a better center than the one we had. To not be in the position of dire need, is really a good way to proceed.

[Leslie Grossman]

Wondering if the Seahawks will move on from Mafe or Nwosu to sign priority FAs and extend Hall eventually. Have DeMarcus Lawrence under contract for two more years.
Would take either over a much older Mack for the right price.
