we need some D, but you gotta think Rivera and Chud might make a move.

Malcom Floyd (SD) – Floyd was given the highest tender last offseason and came through for the Chargers. However, it’s expected that the Chargers will only retain one of Floyd or Jackson and the latter seems more likely right now. Floyd is a tall, athletic downfield threat with the body control to become a number one receiver in the league. He’ll be heavily pursued by several teams.

blah blah blah we gotta get FAs this year, and the good thing is they might take less to play with Cam...?

that and for WRs, the draft class is fairly deep and the FA class is saturated with talent

don't know if it would be money well spent though considering our other needs

I see us making a run in FA for WR, S, and CB... Because Hurney and Rivera tried to address these 3 positions through FA last year but failed. I see us making a run for WR Dwayne Bowe, CB Terrell Thomas, and S Reggie Nelson. I also expect our #1 pick to be an OT with Jordan Gross turning 32 before 2012 kickoff. After that, we need draft young players for depth.

I don't think we could get all those guys, but I would be ecstatic if we got both Nelson and a healthy Thomas. Gettis will have a strong season next year.

Apparently we will only be able to sign vet. minimum free agents.

Not really. Some players on our squad are making way too much money and more than likely their contracts will get reworked. After all said and done I expect us to be about $20m under cap. Thomas Davis, Wharton, Ron Edwards, and etc will all have to rework their contracts. Also 1/4 of all NFL players will be UFAs. Supply and demand.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
