    They have flag football leagues for their staffers so that's something.

    Arjun (Chargers fan who interns for them) is a pretty good QB.

      Storm has value to an NFL roster as a vet min swing OT. That's about it. He should get better over the next year or two as well.

        I think he has value as a backup. I have less certainty he’s going to get much better though

          He'll be 28. OL peak around 30. He also lacks experience and can grow more in that area than a lot of others.

            Yes, but not everyone gets better after age 28. I think he is what he is, but we’ll see. Im betting on Pip … no data to support so don’t ask lol

              Oh, I definitely believe that everyone is not the same.
              My guess : Pipkins starts, Norton is backup.
              I'm betting on Staley, Lombardi, Nugent, Sarrett to field a quality OL and depth.
              My questions are, how many OL? 8-9? Who make the 53 as depth? Who signs with prac squad?
              Clapp- C / G- Saints vet
              Salyer G / T
              Jaimes G / T - seem very likely
              Norton makes 9
              There are some OL depth who'll make the competition interesting.

                We have way more depth than last season. In fact, if our depth had been as good last year as it is now, we probably would have squeezed out another win and been in the playoffs.

                I'm believing Pip will be a good RT for us. He has had a couple of years of good OL coaches now and his off-season training should make him ready. Also, he played well in the two games we saw him last season. Hoping for the best.

                  I’m believing that too. No concrete evidence to point to, except maybe a single game where he largely blocked Melvin “Almost” Ingram .. as if thats a historic fete - i mean, who didn’t? So - yeah, i just believe it. Its gonna happen, too!

                    8 OL is the bare minimum you need on the squad, 9 if you have an extra quality trainee you need to protect. Like Salyer. I’m all for keeping 9 to always have extra young talent training for the future.
                    Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

                      I remember when I thought he was going to sign with us. Glad we didn’t.

                        10....your always going to lose at least one lineman to significant injury during the season and sometimes two.

                        :wtf:

                          I don't believe Staley will keep 10. We need other position depth also. 9 OL tops, 1-2 on practice squad.
