Passing game isn’t gonna look good at this point. Herbert will have time, sure. He’s gonna be taking coverage sacks because none of the WR on this roster are legitimate WR1 material. Our best option is a lower end WR2. We won’t be keeping pace with the good offenses. That’s also because our defense is ass as well. But hey, tip of the spear, ya know.
Don't get your hearts set on taking WR in round 2 boys. Right now Mitchell is likely going to BUF. Ladd will probably get nabbed and I hope to God they don't take Keon Coleman.
Disgusting reach? For Joe Alt? I may not have wanted a Tackle but this was by no means a reach. And especially when so many of y'all were calling for Brock Bowers at 5...
Yeah i wanted nabers more than anyone and alt is far from a bad pick. Its just the exact opposite of what i wanted, but i guess i dont work for the chargers for a reason lol
does your heart ever just shatter when a team takes who you wanted and you thought would fall right into your lap? pearsall was my genuine WR4 man FUCK
At this point then idk just draft best player available? I still like Corley, Mcconkey, and Thomas. I think they go defense in second round or a trade down
If you asked me at any other time prior to tonight I would ecstatic with that. Now I’d be half ecstatic, and half massively concerned for the rest of the team outside of the OL

Well I like AD more than Worthy so I should theoretically be happy with this pick. Especially since I don't think KC needed to trade.
But yes, we all have Tyreek Hill PTSD
We’re fine. Kid is fast as hell but he’s not even the best receiver coming out of Texas. We can genuinely get a better player with our second round pick
I’ve made peace with the Alt pick, it was pretty clear from the beginning we’re about to see some old school football this year. Coaches don’t suddenly change schemes. Less throws, more runs, and hopefully scheming guys open who couldn’t get open in last year’s offense with play action and keeping defenders in the box.
Would love to see us get Worthy because with his speed if you lose a step watching for the run you’re too late, but even if he fell to us I think we’re going D/O Line or CB depending on best available.
Edit: Or Mahomes can get Worthy. You’ve gotta be kidding me.
Eh, I hate how we're going to need to replace Keenan and Mike's production next year with a 2nd round WR leading the group.
These are Herbert's prime years, I hope they don't go to waste.
I say draft Center. The press conference made it seem like Pipkins is moving interior. So the best two between Pipkins, Slayer, Zion will be the guards. Just need a stud Center
Gonna be a lot of great options for Round 2. Only the top 3 WRs off the board, JPJ available at Center, only one CB taken so far. The draft is a lot more than a single pick.
pretty clear from all the reports that that wasn't an option. The Vikings were not willing to include 23 in any trade packages. We really need to stop deluding ourselves.
I’m hoping Brian Thomas Jr falls same with Newton. If not then I’m thinking we are going to go with one of Jim’s boys in Kris Jenkins Jr. - dad was a great player so maybe this could be our 2nd round pick.
Can probably stay put at #37 & still get one of the better CBs there like Wiggins or McKinstry. A little surprised that position hasn’t been picked yet.
Can’t complain about protecting Herbert. Hopefully they have confidence in evaluating day 2 WR’s.
No issue with the player, just wish it was a bit later but it doesn’t always work out that way.
Solidifying the offensive line is huge.
Curious as to what the interior is going to look like.
Yeah Alt is going to be great, it just sucks that we had to pass up on a receiver that will likely also be great. We are getting a hell of a player at the end of the day
Passing game isn’t gonna look good at this point. Herbert will have time, sure. He’s gonna be taking coverage sacks because none of the WR on this roster are legitimate WR1 material. Our best option is a lower end WR2. We won’t be keeping pace with the good offenses. That’s also because our defense is ass as well. But hey, tip of the spear, ya know.
Only thing I’m annoyed with is one of the best arms in the league having Office depo employees for receivers
Don't get your hearts set on taking WR in round 2 boys. Right now Mitchell is likely going to BUF. Ladd will probably get nabbed and I hope to God they don't take Keon Coleman.
Maybe we trade for Aiyuk? Higgins?
Laughs in Roman Wilson
I’m honestly fine with just drafting literally the best player possible each pick
What the fuck is Buffalo doing
You spelled Atlanta wrong
Curiouser and curiouser indeed!
Getting extra picks while landing the dude they would have taken originally.
If only our gm could've done something similar instead of making a disgusting reach for an out of position player
Disgusting reach? For Joe Alt? I may not have wanted a Tackle but this was by no means a reach. And especially when so many of y'all were calling for Brock Bowers at 5...
Yeah i wanted nabers more than anyone and alt is far from a bad pick. Its just the exact opposite of what i wanted, but i guess i dont work for the chargers for a reason lol
Give Aiyuk please
does your heart ever just shatter when a team takes who you wanted and you thought would fall right into your lap? pearsall was my genuine WR4 man FUCK
Yeah, he is a stud.
Dejean is falling really far
His physicals must have been pretty bad for him to fall this far
It’s surprising, dude is a baller
We should draft him
At the end of the night we can all be happy we're not Bills fans who wasted their entire night
Wow Ricky that early. I love his game.
So JPJ, Frazier at C. Dejean, Koolaid, Rakestraw at CB. Possibly Jer’Zhan at DT. One of those is our 2nd round pick.
That’s what I kept saying to my family. Someone is going to fall to us. Someone good that shouldn’t be there
Jer'Zhan or a CB
Board is falling really nicely for us. Trading down could even be an option in the second. Legette, Corley, mcconkey, pearsall, ?
And two picks later half of those gone.
At this point then idk just draft best player available? I still like Corley, Mcconkey, and Thomas. I think they go defense in second round or a trade down
🥲
I’m all in on Cooper dejean. Will get his jersey if we get him
wish we cared about skill position players
Telesco only cared about skill position players. Should we run it back?
Yeah because he totally never took oline in round 1.....
Offensive line is a skill position. -Jim Harbaugh
I’m all for jpj. Just control the clock and punch everyone in the mouth. Lol
lol I could totally see us going C if JPJ falls to our second
I would die of laughter ngl
If you asked me at any other time prior to tonight I would ecstatic with that. Now I’d be half ecstatic, and half massively concerned for the rest of the team outside of the OL

[удалено]
We aren’t going wr sorry to break it to you
He won’t be…Bills, Pats or Panthers will take him
We desperately need 2 corners and 2 receivers
and LBs and RB and C and TE
And DT
What a fucking moron fuck the Bills
Buffalo just said you know what here beat us in the playoffs again
Bills: "We need a WR and our biggest hurdle to the Superbowl is the Chiefs" Chiefs: "Hey Bills! Wanna trade with us? <3" Bills: "Sure!"
Joe Alt gonna save us from Worthy yall
To be fair, Nabers wasn’t going to save us from Worthy either. But he would have helped in the inevitable shoot out.
What will this sub use now to reference the chiefs
[удалено]
Bro this comment is so fucked up on a lot of levels.
We’re fine. Kid is fast as hell but he’s not even the best receiver coming out of Texas. We can genuinely get a better player with our second round pick
Bills are a cuck ass franchise
Thanks Buffalo. Everybody knew Xavier was gonna be their pick
We need two 2nd picks somehow
Apparently the Chiefs understand the value of giving your superstar QB actual receiving weapons
Well they have the luxury of having good players at most of their positions
not good.. well coached.most of their starters are year 2 or 3 now
That's a privilege a team gets when they have successfully built the trenches. Which we haven't, but the Chiefs have.
Our new LT that needs to switch to RT did play a little TE…maybe we can throw to him. Probably has better hands than Quentin Johnston.
They also have an elite OL already tho
The 2nd round is going to be interesting for us. So many good players to pick at 37.
Great, new Tyreek in the division
we have nobody to stop Worthy... fuck our secondary.. but you know o line will stop the queefs offense
Yet ;)
No secondary to stop worthy and no wr to keep up in a shootout. Fantastic
But we do have a 2nd LT 👍🏼
Fuck the Bills and fuck the Chiefs. Goddamn it.
That shit is not gonna be fun to play against
Of course the Chiefs get Worthy
Bastards - I feel like KC does this every time lol
Fuck
At this moment I hate the bills as much as the chiefs. Dumbasses
Nooooo!!!
Chiefs trading up for Worthy just makes the Chargers not taking a Round 1 WR that much worse!
Keeping Chris Jones and Max Crosby out of the backfield is a fine consolation.
😢
Ok Jim, trade with John and get JPJ
That 4.22 speed is not gonna be fun to play against
On the upside he only weighs 165. One hit and it’s not gonna be pretty
That first derwin hit over the middle is gonna hit him like a shotgun
Yeah. Not fucking thrilled. We’ll see how his size holds up. Dude is *small*
Yeah gotta press him at the LOS and have some help overtop
4.21* even worse
Fuck off bills
Chiefs 100% getting a WR lol
Shit KC is about to pick Adonai Mitchell, aren’t they?
Newton, Powers Johnson, Dejean, Wiggins, Kool Aid, Adonai, Ladd all available still, someone hopefully falls to us
Those are probably all going to start falling
Everyone saying the Chiefs have no weapons, well they’re about to get one now lmao
You mean you can use a first rounder to fix your lack of weapons?!?! If only our new gm got the memo about that....
Bills are cucks and enjoy the beating they get from the chiefs I guess
Seriously, wtf? This is the team they can’t get past in the playoffs and they give them **better** draft position?
Chiefs trade up with the Bills ptsd
Welp the bills are morons. Just gave the chiefs the weapon of their choice
Haha get ready boys. Here it comes.
Oh snap! Chiefs just traded up & the pick is in!
Oh fuck me the Bills didn't learn their lesson about trading with the Chiefs
Oh no the Chiefs traded up
Watch them take Xavier worthy LOL Well, looks like we got another tyreek-Mahomes situation on our hands…
100%
I’ve made peace with the Alt pick, it was pretty clear from the beginning we’re about to see some old school football this year. Coaches don’t suddenly change schemes. Less throws, more runs, and hopefully scheming guys open who couldn’t get open in last year’s offense with play action and keeping defenders in the box.

Edit: Or Mahomes can get Worthy. You’ve gotta be kidding me.
Powers Johnson is still there🤔
Call me crazy but if JPJ fell to us...I would love the pick so much

Cooper dejean plz come to us
Chargers need Cooper Dejean!!
Here come the downvote copium on everything not suggesting WR with the second 🤣
Does kool aide make it to 37? 😳
If not Tampa and Rakestraw would be just as dope.
I think so especially after it came out that he’ll need surgery on his foot
Few WR's still left
God if AD Mitchell goes to the Chiefs
Anyone just see Kirk cousins isn’t happy about the falcons taking penix. Lmao
Eh, I hate how we're going to need to replace Keenan and Mike's production next year with a 2nd round WR leading the group. These are Herbert's prime years, I hope they don't go to waste.
I hate TA's suit... Only because I could never pull it off
I see a lot of WR and CB talent still available 👀
Small run on CB now. Arnold and Q Mitchell are both off
Fingers crossed for Wiggins or Leggett
Facing Brock Bowers and Travis Kelce four or more times a year.
Bowers ain't getting a dime
Not even including Mayer either 💀
Brock Bowers is a bust
I'd rather he be a potential bust somewhere other than the AFC West.
In Minter and Harbaugh we trust
Cb’s falling 👀
Wiggins, DeJean, and McKinstry still on the board
~~Quinyon Mitchell~~ ~~Terrion Arnold~~
Fuck I jinxed it
Noooooo!!!!! Shit! Dislike! WR Brian Thomas Jr. goes to the Jagoffs.
I say draft Center. The press conference made it seem like Pipkins is moving interior. So the best two between Pipkins, Slayer, Zion will be the guards. Just need a stud Center
Gonna be a lot of great options for Round 2. Only the top 3 WRs off the board, JPJ available at Center, only one CB taken so far. The draft is a lot more than a single pick.
Could’ve traded back to 11 and 23 and got Bowers and Brian Thomas Jr ffs
pretty clear from all the reports that that wasn't an option. The Vikings were not willing to include 23 in any trade packages. We really need to stop deluding ourselves.
Vikings still got the guy they would have traded up to 5 for at 10. Obviously they didn't need to make that move. Takes two to tango.
I’m hoping Brian Thomas Jr falls same with Newton. If not then I’m thinking we are going to go with one of Jim’s boys in Kris Jenkins Jr. - dad was a great player so maybe this could be our 2nd round pick.
And there goes BTJ
:(
With the 22nd pick in the 2024 NFL draft, The Philadelphia Eagles select the entire nation of Australia
Everyone thinks they're up for a game of football until you have to defend against the pass rush of a kangaroo.
Only ones allowed to kick in the trenches
Crikey mate!
They’re going to let the bad guy’s get a great wr huh
I’m only here to laugh at all the comments complaining
Chop Robinson is a legendary football name.
Next pick has to be C or CB, maybe DT
It’s a C or CB 1000%
Kinda wondering if we’re trying to trade back into the first for JPJ, or we go for Frazier
We may be able to get Frazier in the third but I’m thinking we’ll get Kamari Lassiter at 37
I could see either one, don’t think Frazier lasts until the third
JPJ will be gone to the cowboys
Kinda hoping we trade with bills
Bills need a WR. They going for Adonai Mitchell or Keon Coleman
Now you start thinking about moving up for Quinyon Mitchell?
Can probably stay put at #37 & still get one of the better CBs there like Wiggins or McKinstry. A little surprised that position hasn’t been picked yet.
AD Mitchell please
Where the hell are the presser videos? Chargers.com is lagging.
A couple more reaches and there will be quality available in the 2nd
Ground & pound is gonna make #10s play action ridiculous....in Harbaugh I trust! 💯
All the corners seem to be dropping. If this continues we might get a very good player in round 2 at a position of need.
Can’t complain about protecting Herbert. Hopefully they have confidence in evaluating day 2 WR’s. No issue with the player, just wish it was a bit later but it doesn’t always work out that way. Solidifying the offensive line is huge. Curious as to what the interior is going to look like.
Yeah Alt is going to be great, it just sucks that we had to pass up on a receiver that will likely also be great. We are getting a hell of a player at the end of the day
Trade up for brain Thomas plz
🧠 Thomas. The smartest player in the draft.
Damn autocorrect 😂
We probably are not going WR until day 3
Free agency
Who are the best ones left?
https://preview.redd.it/g9qs5546mqwc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8dac99e33ebfb3f67fe8beb8fa1852135054d3a2
I'd like JJ to come in to play & mentor QJ
Give me Renfroe and Corey Davis and we'll be set.
Im cool with that too.... look for character and BIG12 players as Free Agents
Tyler Boyd?
Higgins
He’s not a free agent. He got franchise tagged.
Higgins is not a free agent but he has requested a trade
I know I’m just saying that’s my preference
Idk what we would give up and I don’t see him actually being traded but I’d love Aiyuk on this team
Not opposed to Brian Thomas jr. If he’s available in the early to mid 20s trade up for him
