San Diego just let go of one of the top 10 NT/DT in the league...idiots.

I'm guessing that the $6M tag was a little too much for em, considering age and 1 game played last year. I hope he can come back with a smaller number, but if not, then it better be Dan Williams/Terrence Cody at 28.

Not surprised at the tender offer, but the 1st and 3rd little surprising, since it appeared he was going to walk away. Still perhaps the FO look at the roster and realized they didn't have another RB. Not to mention the value Sproles has as a screen-pass or quick hitter for Phillip Rivers.

I'm thinking the other way, go later for an RB, barring Spiller sitting there @ 28. I could see them going Hardesty/Dixon/Blount later in the draft and having them behind Sproles and an FA pickup (Chet Taylor?)

M. Hardesty in San Diego is a great fit.

Yeah, I think that's what they'll do, barring a surprise drop on a prime O'lineman.

I am surprised at the highest tender, but not getting tendered.

J Wall is 34, and coming off of a season ending injury, this is not a total shock. Don't be shocked if he is re signed at a lower rate.

Also don't be shocked if Jackson, Merriman, Sproles, or Floyd is traded, but not for the tendered amount.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
