2024 Chargers Draft Superthread - Prospect Discussion - Draft Has Started

[Jack Burton]

It's possible JPJ may fall outside the 1st as well due to injury concerns. For those that want to draft him he may be a good value in the early 2nd round. Theocratically, the Chargers can get him in the program and strengthen him up with the intent of starting him in 2025.
Assuming he falls where they see the value of the pick.

Is there any real evidence of JPJ having a real injury history? I know there’s talk of a concussion…
Is there more, cause I’m not seeing anything really…
I know he had a pulled hammy at the combine..

In the tragically underrated woodMock v4, the board was worked like a boss.
At #11 the best remaining highest speed option with blocking willingness was snagged before they knew what hit them.

Then, with Pipkins as fall back leverage, optimism over Latham, the one pure only ORT of the bunch was still there at #23.

I give myself a grade of A+.

lol, of course. I expect nothing less than A's from you.

So, the scubblebutt I heard was from a source I know that something showed up on his medical checks that some teams are more concerned about than others. Me personally, I wouldn't overthink it and give him a full year in the system as a back-up with the intent of starting him in 2025. I think the value is there personally.

I'm going to guess Sweat's DUI just cost him millions...maybe some team takes a flyer on him maybe in rounds 3-4, but I think he just dropped himself out of round 2...

Ya But, he comes out next week and says" it was just a small blip in the radar and I'm really past those day" then he's good, right?
After all Trump does this all the time and he makes millions from it!

I might have to change my mock 2nd rnd DT pick to Ruke Orhorhoro. He's got the size and arm length.

JPJ is being downgraded because of sloppy, inconsistent handwork, which appears on tape. I see a Guard.

Caleb Williams
Drake Maye

(Keeping Brock Purdy in mind, if you think a QB other than one these 6 is going to be the best of his class, please name him.)

Tough question Velo because with any QB it really depends on where they are drafted to and how that team builds around them. It's rare you get a QB that transcends both scheme and talent around them.
So with that said, the only one we know for sure has very good talent around him and is a good talent from Day 1 is Caleb Williams. It he fails, it will truly be because he just wasn't cut out for this league.

I also think if Penix ends up in Minnesota or Seattle, he will be very good because those teams have alot already in place to fit his immediate skill set.

Daniels in Washington will be very interesting.

Maye/McCarthy in New England? Good luck to either one. If the talent around them doesn't kill them the Boston media/fan market will.

Huh. Interesting.
If it’s not some glaring issue, I’d still take him in the back end of the 1st. His upside is awesome.

I see the Wilson hang ups.

I watched Maye workout...he was all nerves, and it showed...on a scripted workout...makes me wonder how he handles the spotlight in the pros...

I have been warming up to Ruke in this DT class. He has some very good potential to develop into a stud.
