Next year should offer a good LT class.
If Pipkens is not ready, they are in trouble.

Eric Fisher: 6'7" - 304; Andre Dillard: 6'5" - 306; Trey Pipkens: 6'6" - 309; Jason Spriggs: 6'6" - 301Originally posted by wu-dai clan View Post
It is easy to put lots of spin on this.
Andre Dillard--remember him ? LAC fans had a man crush and were crushed when we did not draft him. Why mention him ? He is Peters' successor at OLT in PHI. Dillard is a bust--and he has been trade bait. That's crazy-this is one year after taking him at 22 overall.
PHI must like the idea of a right side of Jason Kelce--Jason Peters--Lane Johnson, now that the great Barrett Brooks is hurt.
It's great to be talking a little football, X !
You have to be careful with these bulked up tight ends; It took years for #1 pick Eric Fisher to be a decent LT. Dillard will need time.
Early indications are that Pip is taking well to NFL weight rooms and vitamin shakes.Comment

Lamp was a 2nd rd OT/G that played all his college ball at LT. He was projected at OG because of arm length. He was a pretty darn good LT and may open a few eyes if he gets a chance.Originally posted by powderblueboy View Post
Really, I won't assume anything about our OL given the changes in scheme, OL coach and personnel, other than it will be different.Comment

As long as that OL is not a 1st round caliber OL then Telesco won't take him. His confidence in 1st round OL was shattered by D.J Fluker. Get ready for carbon copies of Dan Feeney and Chris Watt in later rounds.Originally posted by powderblueboy View PostComment

Remember how it was rumored that Telesco liked Garrret Boles at pick #7 & almost drafted him.Originally posted by Classic View Post

I think for most Chargers fans - many years now : one of the main questions has always been "How will the OL be this year?" And I get last year Okung had the medical issue in June so well after FA so harder to get a player that can help; and than Pouncey got hurt. But again, this year. Granted, Turner and Bulaga on the right side should be better than Schofield/Tevi. So if that happens, thats a plus of course. Pouncey back at Center over Qberry - probably a positive but Qberry is good depth.Originally posted by sonorajim View Post
So that brings us to LG/LT. Right now its Feeney and Pip. I get the bar is low but can the guys they have just be better than Feeney and Trent Scott. Thats it. I am bullish or just a fan of 40+ years where hope springs eternal. #BoltUPComment

And having sex with the 60's version of Raquel Welch should be better than having it with Kaitlyn Jenner.Originally posted by Bolt4Knob View PostComment

Maybe the later 60's for Raquel Welch. I remember her from high school before she went to Vegas as a dancer. Work done there to improve her looks. But the high school version still better then Kaitlyn Jenner,Comment

As for the Chargers OL - yes the bar was pretty low last year especially without Okung and Pouncey. Though QBerry did pretty well. But any improvement at all will be a drastic difference I do believe.Comment

Feeney and Trent Scott can be better this year than they were last.Originally posted by Bolt4Knob View Post
The question is: How effective will the OL group be with a new QB in a 2020 Steichen offense, new OL coach, new R/ side starters?
My guess is that Pipkins- Feeney- Pouncey- Turner- Bulaga will surprise in a good way.Comment
