NFL Draft Talk

Didn’t John Alt play RT for the Chargers this year?
I get that its possible he could play left tackle but because someone else did it doesnt guarantee he can. Whether they take Campbell or Membou if they dont work at left tackle there are other spots along our line they could be the long term answer. I just am not a huge fan of either at #4 spot.
 
Aside from Alfred Collins, some other DTs I like are Oregon’s Derrick Harmon & Michigan’s Kenneth Grant, but we won’t have a shot at them unless we trade down, or trade back up into the first round. On the plus side, this class is rather deep at DT/EDGE, so we should hopefully come away with some talent/solid depth.

I’m a fan of both at 4. Either one will be huge upgrade at left tackle.
 
Correct; I mentioned Arroyo & Taylor as TEs I’d like to draft.


 
I suspect that top of 4th is the sweet spot for getting a RB; there are several good prospects who should be available.
 

That Jacob Gibbs tweet, that's what sold me as Hunter as the best receiver in the country. LINED UP ON THE LEFT SIDE *cough* Works all the way back across the formation through traffic. Is triple-teamed. Sanders throws a dogshit pass behind him. Catches with his hands, runs away from 6 guys chasing him, and stiffarms the 7th guy to the ground inside the 10.

Best case scenario on that play was an incompletion. Another receiver, it might have been a pick, the throw was pretty poor.

Show me tape, of any receiver in the country doing that.

If they take a RB 4th, there will be a line around the block looking for season ticket refunds.
 

Quick notes from the Vrabel presser this morning - Cole Strange will work at Center.

Kind of surprised this little gem hasn't gotten a reaction. Sounds like Strange will be our center, so who gets to play LG??

Robinson, Sow, and Schweitzer all will compete for LG. Wouldn't shock me if they draft a G, as well. If Beadberry beats out strange, perhaps Cole will be in the mix for LG as well.
 
Get your own binky I think they're some sneaky good WR who are going to be available on Day 3.
lol he’s been a Binkie of mine you might of owned him longer.
I adopted him about 3 months ago.
 
Most on here would concede that one off season (FA and Draft) will not make this team into a contender. That being said, regardless of who they draft and where they draft them, this much is certain: They MUST have a significantly upgraded OL (especially LT) than what they had last year, both in pass protection and run blocking. More talent at WR and RB. If they just accomplish those things, combined with the new coaching staff and culture (and really good health/little to no serious injuries), then this team will get better. I look at this season as laying the foundation for what can be done in next year's FA and Draft, and the 2026 Season's Team. We all just want to see tangible progress and solid decision making.

I think people are sleeping on Tai Felton: his game looks very scheme friendly. He can go short - intermediate and deep I think he's a day 1 contributor in the NFL. I view him as a Steal.
