    Our depth is building.
    IMV that takes S, LB and maybe WR off the board as positions of high need.

        Boltbeat gives the Strange signing a grade of F. He doesn’t mince words. Do the Chargers have him set as a starter? This beat writer thinks so.

        ”The Chargers released Mekhi Becton and signed one of the few guards in the league who was just as bad as him last season. And it's not just last season. Strange has been bad his entire career in the NFL. There's a reason he is on his third team in five years after being drafted in the first round.”

        “With no other moves at guard, it appears the Chargers are content with Strange as a starter. That is an abject failure.”

          Cole, I am sorry so many Charger fans are talking so much shit about you in your dedicated thread before they see you play a single snap. Try to ignore them

            We saw enough of these kind of numbers on our o line last year and didnt like the way they looked on the football field during those snaps

            75th of 81 guards in pass blocking (this was in Cole's "break out" 2025 season when he started 14 games because the starter in Miami tore his achilles)

              What was his run blocking grade? That's what McD is counting on to take pressure off Herbert. That and a different offense. No more GRo, Devlin, Boze, Bechton. Plus Slater, Alt, Biadasz,, Ingold and Kolar.

                Ok if he was drafted for depth. If as a starter, I’m beginning to think the front office thinks Herbert managed OK last season with a depleted O-line and that he can do it again this season. A lot of mock drafts have many teams before the Chargers drafting OL men. What’s left at pick 23 could be good over time, but a stretch to start, IMO. They need to make a deal.

                  Anybody who play between Biadasz and Alt will look good

                    We're pick 22.
                    Last season for the most part, we had a crap C and OT-OGs with Gro calling plays, Devlin training OL to make the blocks. That's changed.2025 is not happening again. Re OL being drafted ahead of us? Yes, some will.
                    I don't think Joe is boxed in but may have a deal in mind.

                      I have a strong feeling that what's gonna happen is that we will start Penning-Biadasz-Strange at IOL, and find out whether that works.

                      I will tout my IOL favs for early picks regardless.

                      A very mobile Herbert and dtnamic playcalling from McD will be our plan.

                      It might be a horror movie starring Jason, or it might be Young Frankenstein.

                        Wouldn't it be more reassuring if Penning and Strange were backups ?
