The Offensive Line - Okung Could Miss All Of Camp

Have you read why he's holding out?

There's more, quite significantly more, but I can see how it wouldn't fit with your agenda.

I don't have an "agenda". Unless wanting the Chargers to win it all counts. It's freakin recreational.

[blueman]

It is at that.

I have great familiarity with posters (not @ TPB) who engage in the insult of intellectual dishonesty. That is a high end form of trolling. It's not happening here.

Now to add my take, my football senses tell me that this trade will not happen. We will run with Tevi, Scott and Pipkins. Of course there are growing pains. How many obtainable plug and play offensive tackles are there supposed to be ?

Finally, it is a statement of fact that both Melvin and Trent are holdouts. Us passionate fans can disagree respectfully about other things.

It's about money and how unhappy he is with the Redskins medical staff who told him to wait until after the season ending to have a growth on his scalp removed. He waited and the growth turned out to be pre-cancerous and he was livid about it, for good reason. He is slated to make $11 million this year and $12.5 million next year (none of it guaranteed) and has dropped to being "only" the 7th highest paid tackle in the league.

that's a wrinkle for sure. sounds like kawhi leonard and the spurs.

if they paid him, i think he'd forgive.

in any case, the notion that the chargers should trade for him and have $30+MM sunk into the LT position is fanciful

The Chargers don't have to pay Okung his contract while he is on NFI list.

i'm assuming Okung will be back. May be a bad assumption

Are you sure about that?

Here is a good Trey Pipkins college highlight reel from the Pats site.....

Are you sure about that?

Yes, I posted info on that a while back. The teams and player generally agree to some sort of compensation though.
