Offensive Line Discussion

Pipkins will start at LT. He outplayed Okung, allowing the trade for Turner. We have Pro Bowlers at C-RG-RT.
I'd consider Warford but maybe Campen can do something with our trash at LG.

I concur with all except our trash at LG. Lamp & Feeney have been injured/inconsistent but are physically talented dudes. Perhaps with our Oline JC, scheme change, and more emphasis on a diverse run game we will get an on field transformation in performance of miracle status.

"Trash" wasn't very nice.
I hope one or both respond to our new OL coach, new opportunity in a big way but so far? The excitement I felt when they were drafted has turned to resentment. I wish us well. Go Bolts!

I like that Pouncey has been cleared. Going to be a lot of run rights.

Hopefully Mike will come back strong and healthy for the entire season.

Playing Devil's Advocate, maybe they are higher than Pipkin compared to a vet like Peters? No one else seems to be knocking on his door currently just an FYI.

i think that in drafting 3 players over 30+ (esp OL that has not been their main focus over the years), they are considering 2020. or simply putting players to simply entry of a new qb eventually

FYI - there's an interesting interview with James Campen on Chargers.com if you haven't already listened to it - also an interview of Mike Pouncy

I know it is popular to trash Feeney here, but the first two games of last season, he was looking like the best lineman on the team. Including Pouncey. Then he reverted to poorer performance a few games and then the wheels came off the whole thing when Pouncey went down. I am hopeful that somehow Campen can tap into whatever Feeney was doing early on and extrapolate that for a whole season. Just not ready to give up on him yet. Or Lamp, either.

This is one thing the Chargers really need, to get a return on the investments of a second-round and a third-round pick in these two.
