I'd like two corners and a FS...two of those in the draft and one FA...Originally posted by sonorajim View PostComment

I am good if Hortiz wants to move on to new playersComment

This is just old man yelling/staring at clouds. Since the pandi I've been losing interest in sports. Over saturation of broadcast-streaming. Still love my Chargers, Padres and Rockets. Just don't watch the games as intently.
Believe the roster needs a large overall. Especially the cap eaters. Don't think Mack brings back more than a 4th. So be it. Bosa, Williams, AND Allen can go. We have a new coach and GM, give them a season of grace and rebuild. Feel for Herbert. Not giving up on the season, just an infusion of the roster. Yes, easier said than done. That's their job.
Seems the board was positive on the cutting of Kendricks. Which leads me to my question. For 3 straight years we have cut our leading tackler, White, Tranquill and now Kendricks. Understand to a degree Kendricks, the dollar amount. Still his productivity was solid. White, who I loved and Tranquill was a solid team guy. Tranquill in particular signed for peanuts. What am I missing? Yes, coaching. Promoting Ansley was a joke. Guess Staley wanted to keep control and put a straw man in charge. For the most part football is not like BB where you have stat stuffers. Somebody has to make a tackle. Those three made more than their share. Remember the nay sayers. Kyzir , a college safety, too small to play LB. Tranquill, multiple knee injuries in college. Kendricks, lost a step or two. What's all that say about the other 10 starters, who relatively did not put up near the #s of those 3 guys.
Sorry for the oration. But to sum up, in with the new, out with the old. Not going full youth movement, need some vets to step up and FAs. And please dear God, trade down. I'll now go back to nap time.Comment

There are better TE options than Everett. Harbaugh or Hortiz dont have any ties to Everett and if we sign a TE id assume we would sign someone who is a better fit than he is. Id rather have Fant or Henry than Everett.Originally posted by Fouts2herbert View Post
Everett made 8 mil last year, how much you willing to pay him? Id only offer half that, which im sure he would turn down...... but since i dont want him id offer a little more to the other two i mentioned.Comment

We dont need to release anyone til the 12th and and cant trade MW till the 13th and thats the only move we need to make right now is to be under the cap. So not sure what the plan is. If we have a team that is intersted in MW, maybe we pay whatever bonus he has coming to do that? IDK. But we still have 6 days?Originally posted by Lone Bolt View Post

Bonus for MW is not due until after the league year opens - so thats fineOriginally posted by Boltjolt View Post
But if there truly is a market for Mike Williams in a trade -- that just means they would have to take other avenues to create the $20m of cap space: 1) extend Allen can probably take his $23m down to like $6m and 2) releasing Fox would get you the $20m to be cap compliant
If there truly is a trade market for Williams --take what you can get
If not, easiest thing to do is release him and get cap compliant and than you can make other moves

Doesnt mean we cant pay it 5 days early to make a trade happen. Just saying there may be some interest and why they havent released him yet as we dont need to release him now. They can announce a trade before the 13th as the Bills did.Originally posted by Bolt4Knob View Post
We know something with him will happen and thats the only move we will make til the 13th so some anting to hear something is really not going to be news lol. And i doubt we sign anyone soon in FA. We still have things to do before we sign anyone. Extentions or restructures.....Mack may get traded after the 13th and that is when we might sign someone.Comment

We all want this resolved sooner than later and probably the players themselves want to know sooner than later, but considering that Hortiz and Harbaugh transitioned in pretty late in the process due to the longer than usual hiring cycle, I think the best thing is for them to take their time and look into all the different possibilities rather than rush things...who knows, maybe Hortiz is workin on getting some draft capital instead of just outright releasing all of these guys, that could include the players restructuring to team friendly terms before being moved which would help the chargers even more than has been predicted...take Joey for instance, he wants to play with his brother in SF, he's need to rework his deal so that it could help the 49ers fit him under the cap...what would something like that mean to the chargers in terms of clearing cap space, I mean if Joey took a paycut as a condition of going to SF?Originally posted by Bolt4Knob View Post"The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

Yes, I get what you are saying. To sweeten the trade pot - the Chargers agree to pay the bonus which lowers the bill for the new team. But if that happens - the draft pick would have to be something other than a 7thOriginally posted by Boltjolt View Post
And yes, if on March 13 when the league year opens that MW is still on the roster but Allen has been extended and Fox released (or another move to create a bit of cap space) - could mean MW is being tradedComment

That's so stupid, so he signed a deal just to puff up his collar and say he got 26mil avg? it's obvious that he'll never get that money, teams should be prohibited from writing up these bullshit contracts...Originally posted by Bolt4Knob View Post"The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

players usually postpone the bonuses to facilitate trades, it doesn't make sense for the chargers to pay a roster bonus for a player that will not be on the roster...Originally posted by Boltjolt View Post
if you're the chargers, how do you not make a run at Christian Wilkins?"The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.
