For violation of protective order he says he knew about.  Not sure whether 2017 is a year the league or team care about crimes against women, but still, shaky play and an arrest are never a good thing.

The Chargers are cap strapped.  We already know whey won't go RB early.  But perhaps they reach at LT over going safety.

Apparently his GF invited him, but the neighbors called?

The things you learn.

Quote

Worrick Robinson, Dunlap's attorney, said the tackle was preparing to leave Nashville for San Diego for offseason training, and his girlfriend asked if he needed to pick up some of his clothes. Neighbors saw Dunlap's car in the driveway and called police, Robinson said.

"This event was a misunderstanding between the parties as to what was allowed under the order," Robinson told WKRN-TV. "They had been discussing a joint resolution. This was not an egregious event, but two parties trying to come to a mutual understanding. Unfortunately, a literal reading of the order meant absolutely no contact, and we trust the facts will resolve all issues in a favorable way for Mr. Dunlap."

Interesting and since it's the offseason fine, but this is not relevant to us at all.

Of course it is.  Since we actually beat those guys in a meaningless December game and they couldn't even beat the Browns, they have dibs on us in all 7 rounds. Their tackle situation went from bad to defcon with this news.  It SHOULD affect how we think leading up to and during the draft, as should many other things.

Their tackle situation didn't change at all. And you don't go into the draft based on what you think other teams will do. Other teams have absolutely zero effect on how you should approach the draft. Rank the players, take the best that's available.

Agree to disagree, strongly at that.  If you don't know other team's situations by being so zeroed on on your own, you're not only going to risk losing value in potential trade up/down scenarios, but possibly get run over by a Mack Truck.  It's an all encompassing process filled with different levels of risk/reward that one doesn't even have to be a big money GM to see.

And there's also the conduct/arrest/war on women policy.  Which way will the cookie crumble this year?

      Lowest Yards Per Completion...All Time.

      By CRA · Posted

      When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays

      Saturday roll call

      9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant

      So much revisionist history around the pre-draft Bryce hype. The media was practically united in saying that if he were a couple inches taller he'd be the perfect prospect and it was just a question of whether he'd hold up in the NFL being that small. The Panthers did not create the mythos around him they were just the team that bought in. The team was largely praised for the move after and for surrounding him with what was considered an all-star coaching staff at the time.  Yeah part of the fanbase wanted Stroud but let's be real, we're coming from an oversized franchise QB who injured himself out the league. There was some analysis here on the limitations of Bryce's game but people were mostly just concerned he was going to turn into dust when he got sacked in the NFL.
