  1. 1. Trade for Hunter Henry using 2nd round pick along with Devin Funchess



Recommended Posts

Would you be willing to trade a 2nd round pick to get Hunter Henry who had a solid rookie season.

2016: 478 yds 8 TDs

  • All-time great TE Antonio Gates is returning for his 15th season after tying Tony Gonzalez for the most career touchdown receptions by a TE (111) last season, but Max Meyer of NFL.com reports the Los Angeles Chargers believe that Hunter Henry will ease the eventual retirement of Gates.
  • Henry is the first tight end to lead the Chargers in yards per route run (1.99 YPRR, sixth in NFL) not named Gates, with at least 20 receptions, in the PFF era (since 2006).
  • The duo of Gates (7, T-third) and Henry (8,T-first) allowed the Chargers to lead the league in touchdowns from the tight end position with 15.

Yes...a 1000 times yes. 

This would make Byrd our #2...he'll take the top off defenses (9 routes) and be great on deep posts or 15 yard ins

Samuel could be a true slot receiver

Hunter Henry can play...can he block, not sure

When CMC comes in the game the defense would have to choose between CMC, Samuel, & Byrd...KB loving life.  Stewart running up the middle wouldn't necessarily be a bad play call at that point.

I'm just spit-balling

    • It probably would be. Given that most 6th and 7th rounders aren't NFL game day material except on the Panthers, the pick might improve us slightly with a drafted player, but I'd like to see us actually be able to open up the field. I do think some of our offensive problem stem from defenses aren't afraid of Bryce's arm. They cover a short field and that makes life a lot easier for them.  If it doesn't work though, unless we get rid of the scouting department and whatever drafting algorithm Dave is making us use, it won't really matter anyway. 
    • I think the Baker/Darnold thing has been overblown. QBs that struggle with the team that drafts them and go on to find success elsewhere often do end up going to multiple new teams before they figure it out and/or find the right situation. It just so happened that we traded for both guys in back-to-back years and neither player had quite figured it out yet. Baker, I think, needed more time and a better supporting cast. Darnold, I think, benefitted from a year on the bench in San Francisco a ton. I don't really have any ill will towards either of them. I think they both came here with the best intentions after coming from difficult circumstances; unfortunately the Panthers were - and still are, it seems - also in the process of figuring things out.
    • At this point this is all I want from this team. I'm done hoping for wins. I just want to see a competitive team for 4 quarters. Come out of the gate hard and don't give up no matter the score.
