Can't trade past pick 17 because Chargers would take the last LT right in front of us. We would have to go with another position, which would be a mistake.  If any of the three top LT's are available at 6 stay put.  

There will likely be a good LT drafted after #17 and there will almost certainly be some LT busts drafted before #17. That's just the way the draft goes.

I like the chances of the top three. We cannot afford to draft Brady Christensen 2.0 with our first pick.

I don’t know who that would be. This draft has a top-3, Penning and then a Cliff. Maybe the Tulsa kid or a Raimann but there’s a big talent gap.

Why would the Chargers take a LT when they got Slater last year?

Anything in the Top 15 should be a blue chip player so I’m good with that. If you go back much farther you are taking a big risk and multiple teams have 20 players or less with a true first round grade on them.

It seems like we hear this every year. Multiple teams having less than 20 players graded as 1st round prospects.

Here's what I'll say about that... from a pure analytical standpoint, when you know there is a constant of 32 1st round picks if you are consistently coming up with far fewer than that number in your analysis then your system sucks.

22, 28, their 2nd, and Jordan Love. 

No way you're getting that but considering what they signed Rodgers to, you honestly might get 22, 28, and Love if they actually wanted #6. Based on what I've heard about how Love has looked for them though... I might prefer a mid-rounder.

I agree it’s a weird way to frame it, but if you’re digging into contract value of 1st vs 2nd/3rd rounders + the value you get from trading back to get multiple guys in that 2nd/3rd tier, then I think that’s pretty functional actually

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
