Official 2026 Chargers Roster Discussion | Roster Build | Free Agency

Matlock is out for sure, but why so down on Fisk? Most every team carries a blocking tight end, who might catch 10-15 passes a season. Fisk is a very good blocker. Dependable hands with a frame to shield the ball, too.

Sign Kolar -- have a real weapon at TE. Granted, Fisk only costs the league minimum so keeping him -- no big deal either. Granted, I would just let him go to a team that can use him better if they sign Ingold

I’d rather just have Shaheed or Pierce, myself.
Comp picks be damned!!

Truth!

Some relevant history:

What did Dolphins sacrifice for Tyreek?
2022 1st (No. 29), 2nd, and 4th-round picks, plus 2023 4th and 6th-round picks. The Dolphins immediately signed Hill to a four-year, $120 million extension ($72.2M guaranteed), making him the NFL's highest-paid receiver.

Brown isn't the same player and won't cost as much. But he is a special play-maker.

I'm not advocating for the guy. I have very mixed feelings. Just trying to share what the Chargers could be thinking.

Good points.

I think the asking price will be too much, but I’d be lying if I said I haven’t thought about Herbs throwing to an unstoppable weapon like this. In addition to the collection of other weapons we now have.

I'd love to add a real weapon at tight end...but that would slot in as tight end #2. A third tight end should be an elite blocker.

Ingold is a full-back...doesn't factor into the tight end discussion/consideration IMO.

Sign Pierce and call it good - keep your draft picks. I do like AJ Brown the player - big, physical, good with the ball. But Alec Pierce averaged 21.3 ypc with Daniel Jones, Rivers and Riley Leonard. Herbert could do the same


More players being released. If Hortiz is true about the comp pick game - you lose a St, Juste perhaps, sign a released player - might get a comp pick

Salyer and Pipkins might bring back comp picks
What a world

Was referring to this. I wasnt making the case for making the trade.

Has Philadelphia stated they only want picks for Brown? Would they be open to a player and a pick?

[Fleet 1]

I am so excited for this offseason. What a great way to start the weekend.(Biadasz)

Chargers also interested in AJ Brown

The great way to start the weekend was in regards to Biadasz. And the AJ Brown news was just that. Interest.

Which makes the offseason feel like its starting today. And that excites me.

Just in case you guys were thinking i was floating the idea of trading for Brown. He is a total monster tho.

I think a guy that would be much cheaper and fit perfectly would be Deebo.

Let the Patriots take him so the Chargers have one less team for Alec Pierce.

3D chess being played by Hortiz -- drive up price an AFC team has to pay. Even if the Chargers are not serious - maybe it makes the Patriots give up a bit more than they want

[CanadianBoltFan]

Right guard is fairly shallow in free agency

Let me be clear this signing must come with a contingency plan because Vera-Tucker has not finished 3 of his 5 NFL seasons...but when he is on the field he is an above average starter, very athletic for the scheme, and will come cheaper than other guard options.

I am some what intrigued. Only 26

QJ and a 2nd i might be able to live with...but not our top 2 picks
