    Not surprised, at all, considering the limited cap space. Offer is probably open if he can't find a better deal elsewhere.
    The Chargers have the 6th most cap space in the NFL right now, the Chiefs 25th.

    Hortiz still might have made a low offer to Dobbins though, if he offered

      Yep - plus Dobbins isn't going to cost a lot of money. Even if he signs for $2m - that is only a net to the cap of $1m at this point

      He just might want to explore all options in terms of fit, chance to play, scheme, etc.

        The game Hortiz is playing right now is waiting for a bargain price or post June 1st comp pick retaining player.

        Some players will elect to sign just before the draft, before teams get what they need there.

          Plus, I think the draft needs to happen before he signs any more players

          You don't want to overload with veterans and draft somebody that might duplicate a position

          Free agent will be used post-draft/pre-training camp to fill in around the edges

              Money said he thinks the comp hit goes away the week after the draft...not sure how accurate that is...

                There is zero reasons to not low ball him.

                      I listened to a AZ podcast and the guys initially were mocking how the Chargers are becoming Balt West or Michigan West and they were laughing and then you could hear them thinking in this long silence……and they both agreed it’s a good and smart thing to do.

                      Other teams fans see and get it….
                      This is long overdue.

                        I just read this last week - -4pm ET the Monday after the draft - the comp pick window closes

                        I remember the Ravens one year signed Justin Houston at like 4:01pm ET - or very soon thereafter - they were just waiting

                          Rumph Matlock are the two at the top of the Ben Herbert "makeover" list for me

                          But the whole team really - starts today I do believe
