Telesco Likes Internal Options At QB - Post Rivers Era QB Discussion

[blueman]

No, I don't. What purpose does pretending to have interest in Brady do but not actually signing him - show that our team can't close a free agent? Is it to make Taylor look like the backup plan at QB? Is that going to fill the new stadium?

PR, public relations. Has bugger all to do with what’s best for the team, so asking those questions is meaningless. It got the Bolts in the news as a team looking to go big or go home. This franchise needs a lot of that moving into its new home. I’m just glad TB had the $$$ to sign that bum.

IMO, they were dead serious about trying to sign Brady and lost out. I don't see it as PR at all but that is all speculation on both sides of the argument as we'll never really know.

Go big or go home while starting Taylor at QB is about as diametrically opposed as can be! If they want to make a splash, drafting Tua or Burrows (not attainable) are about the only players that might do it.

Speaking of Dalton, Daniel Jeremiah was on the radio a month or so ago and was discussing the Chargers potentially drafting a QB and the question of Taylor as the starter came up. He said he'd rather the Chargers offer a low to mid-round pick for Dalton as he is a way, way better QB than Taylor. Ugh.

Lol Bengal fans know too well of “good Andy” and “bad Andy”. He will have a mix of great games and terrible games in one season just like Rivers. Still don’t like the idea of giving up draft picks or giving up big bucks for any QB.

Well that’s the thing, if their plan really is to go with Taylor, maybe draft a QB in later rounds, then yeah not too splashy. Hence getting in the headlines chasing Brady was smart, cuz then hey, they tried.

If we don't do the Tua,
the acquisition of Storm Norton creates flexibility @ #6.
When I traded #6 to MIN for #22 & #25,
here's what Machine came up with...

I got Denzel Mims + D'Andre Swift.
Austin Jackson and Josh Jones were there.
Tyrod can deal with that.
Just missed on Andrew Thomas #15 and Jedrick Wills #21.
Roll the Bones.
Takes your chances.
It's dizzying.

Yes you are correct.

Spanos would have given his left testicle to sign Brady.

Now that Brady has turned us down it is just sour grapes from Charger fans.

[blueman]

Spanos, sure. Anybody associated with running a winning team? Not so much.

That can't be... no one ever insults the Bucs...

Dream scenario. Chargers draft a QB and he's allowed to show what he has during preseason. Stick didn't even take the field last preseason, what a joke. Granted, Stick was a late pick. Stick must have not impressed the coaches that much during practices.

[21&500]

This is becoming anticlimactic for me.
We are absolutely drafting Tua
we absolutely tried to get Brady because even Lynn knows we can’t expect Tyrod to “Dilfer” his way into a superbowl.
the fixing of the RG/RT is not a coincidence
hopefully we don’t give up too much in a trade-up, but we will be coming away day 1 of the draft with Tua.
Telesco is telegraphing his intent because it’s obvious and everyone can read it except for some Charger fans because they’re overthinking it.
