The more I hear, the less sorry I am he was traded.
As far as Keenan's production goes, he was targeted way too much, because they didn't have a running game, and other receivers had trouble staying on the field. Maybe that really made KA's ego feel good, but no NFL team is going to win with that formula.
The bottom line: While KA's salary was commensurate with his usage with prior Chargers' teams, It was out-of-whack for his future usage with this team. Consequently, he was less valued by Hortiz than by Telesco. Further, the Chargers have a dead-cap hit of $11,619,500 that the Bears do not have to pay, Right?
one thing to mention is that the Chargers were asking him to come back at a reduced rate so it wasn't that need all the cap space they just wanted some and I'm sure they had the Bosa and Mack balls up in the air at the same time.
in any case follow the yellow brick road. Pretty soon you'll reach the wizard.

if the my hunch turns out to be correct and the Chargers trade down with the vikings and get all that draft capital, I think people are going to back off a bit and realize that the team is being restocked responsibly with younger more affordable players which also helps in the injury department..."The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

1 last thing about KA
how much extra money is going to be spent on a rented house or apartment in Chicago? I doubt you're relocating there.
so he's going to uproot his 4 children (2 school age)
From their school and community to play in Chicago for a season.
Just a poor poor choice.Darius "4.36" Davis

Good analysis. IMHO I believe trading Keenan sets their draft plans to draft either Marvin Harrison Jr. or Malik Nabers at #5. (I could be wrong about that, I'm wrong a lot , but that is my reading.) They have an extra pick from the Keenan. (We may see another trade for either a player that fills a need or an additional draft pick.) With all the cap space they've created they can build out the roster this year with a mix of veteran free agents and the four picks they have in the first 110 and hit the ground running in Sept ready to compete for a SB.

I'll take MHJ or Nabers 10 out of 10 times this season over an aging KA! Why because we don't have enough cap room to spend on KA's cost coupled with we have too many position needs to fill! Also a fresh start with a potential star top 5 WR deep threat has more value as a whole in Roman's O!
On the other hand he's getting old and has missed games with injuries in the recent past.
At some point he may just fall off a cliff in health and he cost a fortune in cap.
Rookie MHJ, Odunze, Nabers are a step down from KA in being open every down if KA is fully healthy.
They have greater speed and are the future where KA is not.
We won't be counting on one WR to save us in 2024. Rather multiple WR, TE, RB rec options and a healthy run game,
