    A telling sign with the Chargers plans will be how do they get under the cap by March 15. If its Bosa - well he is not going anywhere

    If its not Bosa - well why not?

      You ask why not Bosa? Here's one reason - we already have seen that we are shallow at Edge. Even with both Bosa and Mack, we didn't have enough good players for a decent rotation. I guess if you are okay with using 2 or 3 of your top draft [icks on an Edge it's okay but if you want some skill players for the offense, don't create more needs on defense.

        I meant more from a cap management perspective. Bosa is the most likely person to move money for.

          We agree in that way.

            Do we have any money for Derrick Henry? He’s the big back we need. Let me teach you. With Herbert this guy might rush for 2,000 yds. How do you put 10 in the box with Justin Herbert.? It’s impossible. Herbert will shred you with Allen and Williams. A lot of my moves are based on the fact that we have an all pro Quarterback who can throw it all over the field. Look what Henry did with Tannehil. Imagine what Henry will do with Herbert.

            also a Tackle like Slater and a run blocking guard like Zion Johnson. It really makes Herbert better. Keeps him fresh. Allows him not to be hit as much. It protects Herbert. We become more balanced. And if we want to run we can really run. Something we can’t do with Eckler.


            I legit think this move makes us super bowl contenders. With Kansas City.


            also I think this allows us to draft Michael Mayer who is perfect for us. He’s a Gronk. He’s Travis Kelce. His route running is precise. And he really is big and strong. Goal line has wining one on ones. Perfect for Herbert to open up the middle of the field.


            I like him better then Kincade. Kincade looks more like Greg Olson to me. Doug Jolley if you remember him. Todd Heap Jay Novicheck Greg Clark.

            id be willing to move other guys to create Cap to sign Henry.

              D'onta Foreman would be much cheaper than Henry if we want to sign a big RB(236 lbs), and he has been productive.

              Henry isn't in our budget.

              And Kincaid has natural stick um for hands. Jolley? Lol

                  I don’t think Bosa is going anywhere. I don’t want him to go anywhere. Yes maybe restructure his deal, but I’m not letting him go.

                    man I see what you’re saying I really do. But Derrick Henry is that dude. Just look at the highlights. I know you’ll say he’s old Foreman is cheaper but just look at what we can do with Herbert with Henry.

                    and come on man. Do you remember Corey Dillion UW running back. When he got to the patriots with Brady they were nearly unnstoppable because when you have a Quarterback like Brady who’s just like Herbert who I compare to Brady. They command so much. So all pro running backs look great to run cause it’s so easy to run. I also want Herbert to not have to do so much Henry does that.

                    Foreman will be nice. Henry can win us a super bowl.

                        Henry is 29 and has a TON of mileage on him. He has also missed 10 games over the past 2 seasons with injury. I love how hard he runs but I'd rather draft a RB high than take a chance on him.
