Probably my 2nd favorite team is the Packers, because they were my Dad's team.
Bulaga is good, and has been a favorite of the fans. Yeah, he gets hurt. He's an offensive linemen.
We just got a cheaper player, who is healthier, than Okung. (and I love Okung, when he was healthy, very good)
Adding Bulaga, Joseph, and Harris... these guys are all "Pro's pros". They are respected, and long term starters. All at decent prices.
These are the kind of signings AJ Smith made before we took off in 2004. (Roman Oben, Steve Foley, Randall Godfrey)
Really curious to see what they do with the #6 pick, now."...of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."

Usually when someone signs with us someone is on top of it and posts it but I have not seen one report from anyone about him signing with the team. He's a Right tackle from the packers and signed a 3 year 30 million dollar contract with the Chargers. So he will be the teams starting right tackle the next 3 years and if thats the case the right side of our line along with Trai Turner is going to be dominant. If you look at who we have gotten for our O-line tells me they are trying to make this a run heavy oriented team so they don't put to much pressure on Tyrod Taylor. Now we just gotta build up the left side of the line. REPORT: Chargers will sign Bryan Bulaga to 3-year, $30M deal

Even though the Los Angeles Chargers did not land prized free-agent quarterback Tom Brady this offseason, they did manage to pull in several key veterans that should immediately upgrade several areas of weakness on the roster. One of those, former Green Bay Packers offensive lineman Bryan Bulaga, will secure one of the two tackle spots for the foreseeable future.
Yet when free agency began, Bulaga didn't know he would ultimately land in Southern California.
"I'd never gone through it because the last time I was scheduled to be a free agent I had re-signed with Green Bay before the whole thing kind of got going," Bulaga said of the free-agent process on SiriusXM NFL Radio. "This time it was different. Sitting around kind of just waiting, getting a phone call from my agent every few hours updating me on what was going on. We knew pretty early that we wouldn't be heading back to Green Bay. That was made known pretty early, I think before the opening bell of the tampering process. We kind of knew that. We had an open mind and we were willing to kind of hear where the market was going and what teams were going to call."
ADVERTISING
Independent of which quarterback starts for the Chargers this season, the team wanted to upgrade its offensive line. Bulaga, one of the best tackles on the market, made sense from that standpoint. He also has a preexisting relationship with new offensive-line coach James Campen, which helped facilitate the move.
"The Chargers were a team that was very interested from early on," Bulaga said. "Obviously, for me, a very familiar face is the offensive-line coach in coach Campen. He was my O-line coach in Green Bay for nine years. So, going to a place that is unfamiliar to me with having a familiar face there was a big sell for me."
The Chargers also helped their cause by making a strong push for Bulaga off the bat.
"There were a handful of teams that called and inquired, but no team really got down to negotiations right away like the Chargers did," Bulaga said. "That was the one team that, from the tampering period at the start of it and kind of throughout the entire time, really negotiated right away. Other teams, I feel like, were kind of feeling things out. There weren't really any concrete negotiations going on. It was really the Chargers."
With Bulaga joining a revamped offensive line that also added five-time Pro Bowl guard Trai Turner this offseason, the Chargers appear well on their way to running out their strongest unit in several years.My 2021 Adopt-A-Bolt List

NFL Gamepass is free right now. Just watched the Chargers-Packers game from last season. Bulaga had a rough day along with the rest of the Pack.
That will happen when you go up against Bosa for a few plays and then have to stop Ingram on the next. Rochelle was the only guy he was really able to keep
getting whipped by.
