Anyone who thinks they were targeting Simmons hasnt been keeping up with predraft stuff.

 

They were a lock to draft

1. A OT: because how bad Okung and the OL is

2. A QB

They were never considering Simmons.

I’d rather take a chance on the top OT, but yea Hurney always proving people wrong (?).

Now if he’s cut June 1 just to save more than we would have by just cutting trai I will be impressed.

Trai is unmotivated here and got man handled last year...not mad we moved on

And everyone is considering 

Tua

Herbert 

Okudah 

Wills

Thomas

Becton

Young

Brown

Etc.

 

Chargers have Major need at OT and QB even prior to the Okung trade

Thus why evry mock by every analyst has them going OT or QB.

Thus why all of the talking heads and writers have been hearing throughout seniorbowl, combine etc

I view Simmons as a more athletic version of Shaq - and I really like Shaq.  Drafting him would get me really excited about our LB's again.. That being said even Luke looked mediocre last year because the D line could not block for him. 

IMO - We need to fix the line in FA or the draft before we consider a LB.

Relieving the Chargers of their OT makes their need to draft an OT that much higher. They are one pick before the Panthers, thus dropping QB to us

      This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
