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.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
