Chargers Weekly: Full 2022 Free Agency & Draft Q&A | LA Chargers

Yo Chris & Money!! Love hearing you guys chop it up & talk all things Chargers!!
Q. Who is a draft crush or trade candidate you would love to see on the team??
Mine would be Sauce Gardner or Khalil Mack!!

I would like to know how comes Telesco is not on the hot seat or even why he hasn´t been fired already? Why the press is not all over his terrible job? A decade of failure. Only two playoff appearances. A losing record. 3 HC. A roster full of holes and no deep. Rivers and Gates’s career was squandered by him. He was supposed to fix the O-line from year one, he is still fixing it. Clownish STs for years. He is not any better than A. J. Smith and he is factually worse. So how many more chances before he wastes Herbert’s prime too? If he was the GM of any other franchise, would he still be hired?
Also, you keep talking about what Telesco´s philosophy is and you talk about that as it was something successful. Don’t you think you should only follow a philosophy when it works? “You’re drafting for the next 10 years”? Care to look how many players, not on their rookie deal, still remain with the team?

If I had one question about free agency or draft it would be who do you think could instantly replace the production (not named Devante Adams) of Mike William’s if he were to not be franchised and he signed with a different team?

I think Drake London while maybe not the number one reciever in the draft would be a instant stat machine for Herbert that would be a similar to a Mike William’s clone. Possession guy who can occasionally take the top off a defense it’s just I’d hate to spend a luxury pick on a wide out in the first round without taking care of defense or offensive line first but, that production has to be replaced and I’m not sure Josh Palmer is up for that kinda year in year 2.

Money please whisper to Tom T about getting a corner first round (Booth Jr). Bruising rb second round (Breece Hall or Rashaad White) also please let’s get Matt Araiza and completly turn around our punt game and flip the field in close games.

Use the original horse shield logo as the primary logo and on the white helmets.
The meaning of the Chargers name is a horse charging into battle and that should be the primary logo ⚡️🐴 🏈
And the primary uniform colors should be
Royal/Navy Blue 🔵 with Gold/Yellow 🟡
And watch merchandise sales go up ⬆️
The lighting bolt with the numbers on the helmet was on the LA Chargers 1960 helmet and the horse shield logo was the primary logo in 1960 as well
But the horse shield logo should be the primary logo and on the helmets as well.
Let’s Go Los Angeles battle Chargers!
Da Dah Dah Da Charge!⚡️🐴🏈🔵🟡

For real. If our receivers clean up the drops they had this year, it’s one hell of a corps. I wouldn’t mind them trying to pick up someone like T.Y. Hilton if they can get a good price in FA.

Edit: assuming they keep Mike. If they let him walk, I wouldn’t be happy unless they went for someone like Robinson.

He’s barely hitting his stride. He’s going to be a monster we do need him

@Dennis Miciano they paid rivers, allen, bosa, tried to pay gordon, paid ekeler, probably gonna pay James. Every teams goes through letting people walk. Narrative on Chargers not paying people is off

@Jordan Samuels I don’t agree with that assessment, I believe it was the attention that was put on Allen that freed up Williams on his plays. I don’t want to lose that duo. They have great chemistry!

I got good news for you brother

Welcome brother. Bolt up

@Phone Phone Chargers to the playoffs next year

Welcome to the roller coaster

Come to us when things are going well for us but stay with us no matter what!

Navy > powder blue > royal but it’s just my opinion to me royal blue ones don’t look right love the navy ones and the powder blues are alright

You must be very young to say that. Once upon a time, and that long ago, the Chargers had a team with people like LT, Gates, Rivers, Vincent Jackson, Lorenzo Neal, Nick Hardwick, Jamal Williams, Quentin Jammer, Merriman, etc. The Chargers never reached their full potential, all that talent was squandered. A.j. Smith was the original culprit for that and was fired and replaced by Telesco which is factually worse. Both GM long-tenured, both a failure. Spanos makes these dudes his friends, not his employees, and there is why we’re always underachieving.

First season under Staley we revamped the o-line, something we never did for Philip and he suffered for years because of that. Staley has been around the game and he understands what direction it is going in. He pitched the big money to Corey linsley in the offseason, and with the most money in the league what makes you think we won’t go and fix the other side of the line of scrimmage ?

@Gabriel Gordillo if Staley is making the final call, then I agree with you, he would make sweeping changes to the D-line. But Telesco has never ceded power to his HC’s before and is obsessed with the players he drafts, good or bad. I’m just skeptical that he’d change his approach. I do hope Staley has the biggest voice in the room
