Jim Harbaugh, New Head Coach Of Our Chargers

[Boltnut]

Chargers trading from 5 to 10 - that would have to be worth a 2nd and 4th at minimum

Still want Bowers at 5 or trade back to 8 - if Atlanta wants a QB -- probably still get Bowers

EDIT: Jets are not an option -- they don't have a second round pick. Unless they offer a future FRP

From #5 to #10 is 400 points (according to the Trade Value Chart)
Jets have a 3rd (230) and two 4th's (70+66). That equals 366.
If we trade Mack, we'd have three 3rds and three 4th's.
8 picks in the top-113 picks of the draft.

I am curious what some of the players think of the hiring, especially Herbert. Would be nice to see some reaction.

Do we think Herbert and Harbaugh have talked yet?

The players want to win. They'll buy in. If not, trade them for picks or cut 'em. We don't need them. We want winners, not losers...

[Chargerville]

Never thought about the comparison to Parcells, who also never stayed in one place for too long. Hoping for two SB rings as well with us.

Faulk also mentioned that Harbaugh does change things up offensively even though he seems like he’s primarily a ground and pound guy.

Can’t say he didn’t stay long in Michigan… he was there 9 seasons.

Derwin was asked what he's looking for in a D.C.: "just clarity, so that we can go in there and play fast".
Previous to this, he mentioned something about there being a lot of moving parts last season.

^ this...one more confirmation that Staley's Pattern Match Defense was too complicated for the players to absorb and react in time for what he was asking them to do...simplify the defense, make responsibilities clear, and your D will excel...

I like the Eagles.
#5 for #22, #50 and #54.
Philadelphia could be tempted to trade up for Bowers or Nabors.
Fangio will fix their D.
Trade value chart favors the Eagles.
Do it.
@ #22 will be a good player who falls.
Then we would have three round two picks !
Day two is gold, Boltnut...gold.

Get rid of the yellow pants. Best uni is the powder blues from the early 1960's, end of story.

QFT. I suspect, just guess, that for some guys their initial really strong attachment to the team happened when they were wearing the Navy’s so thats their emotional tug. spitballing for reasons as obviously the powder blue and white is the most kick ass of all unis they ever wore.

I’ll bet they keep the powders as primary, whites on the road. navy will be a one game fling to sell swag, same as that electric blue whatever for one game. And that’s just fine with me … sell away, you got a grown up coach to feed!

Lone - its a Harbaugh jersey travel accommodations flight log thread. Roll with us

I have the feeling that-- for as long as the Ravens remain in the playoffs-- the signing of Joe Horvitz (by ANYbody) won't be announced.

If MY team is heading into the Conference Championship game?!? I don't want the distraction of an announcement that a key member of my Pro Personnel staff is leaving.

I’ve seen x posts rumoring that brown has the inside track. No idea if true - i actually like hortiz more. i guess Dodds didn’t make the Final Cut, liked him a lot too

Asante Samuel Jr. said "thank God!" in his twitter account.

Not that he doesn't appreciate Brandon Staley's contributions towards making him into a better football player.

?

He regressed under Staley.

How come the 49ers guy got hired by the Commanders? He was announced.

Wow! That's a long ways back. Seems like that may be too expensive for the Eagles.
3rd and 4th rounds are loaded with good players this year. It would be a shame if we squandered this chance to build.

Bosa is the last person that's gonna wanna play for Harbaugh. Listen to Delanie Walkers interview on bussin with the boys about Harbaughs first year in S.F. Jim's gonna come in and run his program like a college program, especially the first year. Anybody who misses workouts, misses OTA's, wants rest days etc ain't gonna cut it. That's not something most veterans are gonna get in line for, particularly Bosa. Bosa couldn't even handle Staley's country club schedule. He's the type of guy who really does best on just 1 limited practice per week. That ain't gonna fly. He'll want out ASAP & if he does stick around he'll be on IR by week 3.

I look for about half the current players on this roster to end up on the 'Fade - that's probably the real reason Telesco was hired there.

Bosa was recruited by, and played for, Urban Mayer. Mayer was tough... bordering on abusive.
Joey can hang with Harbaugh. I think Joey would respect Harbaugh and play hard for him. I never got that sense with Staley.
