And With The 5th Pick Of The NFL Draft Chargers Select....Discussion

[Chargers8491]

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

My ideal scenario is same but man I would try and get 2nd and 3rd out of it. If we get Bowers and an extra 2nd and 3rd I'm doing the happy dance.

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.

I have a feeling they will be way under the salary cap by the time they get done with current roster moves.

The only way the Chargers are WELL under the cap is if they move on from Bosa, MW, Allen and Mack. Parham and Fox don't get you well under

You know for a top 5 QB - -who knows maybe the Falcons would give up the equivalent of a late First Round pick

My valuation was just 10% higher than the points chart

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

If we get your 6 through R4:

OC
CB
OG
LB
IDL
RB

In that order. Assuming Mack is back lol.

Linsley (ret) and Kendricks plus I'm sure there will be more lesser cap cuts as well. I don't think they will move on from all 4 unless they don't take a paycut. The only one that really played up to his contract was Mack. If they move on from Bosa, Hunter makes sense. Put of course I'm just spit balling because I have no clue as to what the Chargers are going to do.

That was kinda my line of thinking. You want a QB you are going to have to pay. The Chargers have the leverage here.

I'm doing that 'happy dance' if the Bolts get that 2nd and 3rd you mention, and the player drafted is Alt... or Nabers... or Odunze... Any of them would be an outstanding 'value pick' after a trade down, and any of them would be a cornerstone for the team, moving forward.

I also see UCLA edge Laiatu Latu moving up the boards. If he is truly *NOT* a medical risk, he'd be great addition to the D. Plus, I wanna hear the broadcasters stumble over having to say 'Laiatu Latu' and 'Tuli Tuipulotu' all game long. lol

I think IDL is higher than OG. I agree OC is the biggest true need on the roster. I probably go OC, IDL, CB, LB, RB, OL

Makes you wonder if at some point like at 930 at night they sit back and say "damn we got a shitload of work to do "

Nabers or Odunze I would be happy with....Alt not so much. Not that I don't like Alt but I don't think OTs were/are the issue but if he is the choice then in Hortiz we trust. I think the medical risk is hard to get past especially after the last few years we have had with injuries but that would be fun to watch.

Certainly, TE has to be on the list of needs, no? Maybe not as high?

I just read that Brock Bowers said he doesn't want to be a Charger. He's prefer the Titans
