    But if the team needs to go OT - I get it. Build that Oline, get a running game

    Just prefer getting OT at 8 or 11 and not 5. I am being greedy. At 5 I want Bowers or Nabers
    Nabers, higher ceiling.

      Truly - open to either as long as its at 8 or even 11

      Time to get 10-12 draft picks - and not just 6th or 7th rounders

          Not only is Bowers an elite complete tight-end, but he plays at the same high level on every single play game in and game out.

          I LOVE THAT.

          I’ve never seen anything like this from a tight end and I’ve seen some good ones over the past 40+ years.

          Watch Georgia tight end Brock Bowers in eight games embedded into this article.

            Ideal: a double fake, we trade back a couple spots, then trade down again for even more picks, our first pick being JPJ. After that BPA, cuz holes everywhere. Top need addressed in the first round with a blue chipper, then like 8-10 more picks for everything else.

              Works for me - so you think JPJ is more in the teens than top 10 pick?

              The Chargers have so many needs -- - almost every position
              BackUp QB - more Free agent but still would draft one in later rounds
              RB
              TE
              WR
              OC and RT
              DL - after Center, the biggest need might be a true DT
              LB
              CB
              S

              So my goal of 6 picks by R4 and 8 picks by R5 - just might not be enough

                you didn't get the TBP memo: we can't draft Bowers, there are too many holes.

                  I not to worried about the holes, they will be fixed between FA and draft. If they get rid of Bosa and MW and restructure Mack and KA they will get under the cap. Fox will likely be cut as well as a few other Chargers. They will have more than enough cap space to add FA.

                  Barkley could be added at RB and Hunter could be added at DE just to name a few. Need to do more research to see what DTs and CBs are available in FA but those two I mentioned would be solid additions. Kinda have to wait and see what Hortiz does with current FAs and roster to see what holes will need to be filled.

                  Adopted Bolt: QJ

                  SEASON: 2024 (WK10)
                  REC: 20
                  YARDS: 306
                  TDS: 5

                    HAHA

                    I go back and forth with Nabers and Bowers. Obviously landing one of them after trading back would be ideal but how often does ideal happen in the draft?

                      Not sure the Chargers will have the FA money to sign both Barkley and Hunter. They still have to pay their draft class and fill other roster spots. Maybe if they move on from Mack will they have the money for a higher priced FA.

                        Nabers or Bowers, especially after a small trade back, is my vote.

                          My ideal scenario is moving from 5 to 8 with the Falcons

                          Falcons send the 8th pick in R1, 2024 3rd and 4th plus a 2025 4th or 5th for the Chargers 5th pick
