Despite the fact that we didn't get someone who can be an every down NT, I loved the Chargers draft.

Let's just hope Ryan Matthews can produce.

It was Roger Goodell's idea, and apparently it made them a lot of money. I'm with you on that one though, after the first 2 rounds just give me a damn summary.

I just hope he shuts everyone up. Geesh do people love to hate this guy.

I dont hate Tebow, but something about him just aint quite right. I get this sense that there is nothing humble about him. Its this whole sense that he's a cocky SOB. Remember when Jamarcus Russell got drafted?!?! I'm getting that same cocky attitude off him but without him being actually being cocky. Like him trying to be humble is fake...kinda hard to explain...

He just reminds me of someone that would be in a southern methodist church rendition of the Dukes of Hazard.

I don't know, but I know we wouldn't get along.

The shitty part is how do you think Orton is gonna play considering he knows he's expendable and you got a 3rd string QB that will more than likely make more money than you?

damn im good


i think hes gonna be good..he's falling into an offense that already has talent, putting less of a load on him and the running game..

as far as NT, they're gonna play williams there most likely...

The Chargers cut JWall like a month ago. He's on the Broncos now.

I'm actually kind of excited to see what Cam Thomas can do though. He has the ideal size for a 3-4 NT, but his work ethic seems to be in question and much like Cody struggles with his weight which caused him to slide all the way to the 5th round. If he can buckle down and actually try and make it in the league I think he has all the tools, size, and raw power to be a dominant NT. We'll see, at the 5th round though it's hard to argue with the pick up. If he does well it's a total steal if he doesn't, oh well it's a 5th round pick.

do they have any veteran in that position?

We have Ian Scott, I think he has been around 8 or so seasons. He's just a rotational guy though and not really a true NT. Most of our veterans on the line are DE's. With a looot of youth who proved themselves last year.

Should be interesting to see how it all pans out with the NT rotation in full effect again this season. I fully expect to see Cam Thomas in on obvious run plays though. The guy is the size of a house.

wow Ian Scott, havent heard from him in a while..he was a Bear last i heard, and a DT which is alot different than playing NT..i think you guys are gona have a bit of an issue there

Well it was Ian Scott, Alfonso Boone, Ogemdi Nwagbou, Vaughn Martin, Antonio Garay, and Travis Johnson on rotation all last year after JWall got hurt in the first game. For a bunch of scrubs they played admirably.

I suspect we will cut 2 of those guys and it should make a bit of a difference having a body there that actually fits the position.

poor Jamarcus Russell hahaha

i honestly think the AFC West is now up for grabs from any of the 4 teams..

Broncos arent much of a bad team at all..

Chargers are a bit overrated..

Raiders are looking really good on paper, well they have before so lets see what they make of it

Chiefs, well i think they just had a bad season last year..now with Jamaal Charles starting along with Thomas Jones back there I think they may compete..Charles helped me win $400 in fantasy football last year so im rooting for him ha

The stars just couldn't line up for the Chargers, with having a potential run game, and an established passing game.

Fucking VJ and Marcus McNeil won't play till the 10th or 11th game this season it's looking like.

vikings may win this year if farve comes back and have a tremendous year like last year with the help of gherhart. i think they need improvements on their safety first then linebackers and those stupid off. linemen need to open up a hole for ap. i know he is training with a medicine ball specially made like a football so when regualr season come around he dont fumble as much... oakland will have a better year as said in earler post al davis does need to die really soon, saints wont win this year, jets will diffenitly be a contender again this year, i hate titans hope they shit this year, colts are so so, they need better running game still cowboys are whatever they are a choke every year. chargers are dumb enough said...

ESmorz

It is just a really stupid ordeal.

Especially with the impending lock out next year.

So what do you guys think of Terrel Owens teaming up with Chad Ochocinco?

Now the Jets are also showing interest in TO. Its going to be a very interesting either way it turns out.

I think T.O is going to Cinnci. Does he want second year QB Sanchez throwing him passes or pro bowler Carson Palmer? Something tells me this wont be his last year, so the only way for him to prove that is to make plays

T.O. already signed the contract like 3 days ago bro. Where you been?

Old news it wouldn't be on the NFL Channel anymore LOL. Trust me I'm always sure when it comes to football I know all that happens around the league.

It's not going to matter where T.O. goes. The Chargers are going undefeated this year. bank it.

Mi Beardo es Loco

well, first off I want to be a dick and say that a 34 doesn't have a DT, it has a 0 technique Nose Tackle. A 5 technique DE is more similar to what a DT does in a standard 43. Ok, dickness is done.

You were actually dead on. Instead of Best we got Mathews and we got an absolute STEAL in Cam Thomas. He is a big big dude. Also, Vaughn Martin has been the most impressive DLinemen thus far in the offseason. His willingness to learn and ability to absorb is crazy. OG, Cam and Vaughn Martin will probably be the rotation at NT. Castillo, Travis Johnson, Alphonso Boone and Cesaire will rotate in at DE. Looks like Ron Rivera is looking for more speed and will be rotating a lot of players on the DL. Also, expect a TON of movement and confusing packages. Those who know the 34 and are 1 gap purist will be pissed. lol

Jackson is. McNeill, not so much. Jackson has a TON of off the field problems. Why ask for a new contract when you're suspended for the first 4 games? I would think that he would want to keep his nose clean to prove to the team that he can and then ask for a new contract. Now, with Big Mac, his play has regressed but has a ton of talent. He proved that he COULD be a top LT in the league if he stays healthy and gets his weight down. He has spinal stinosis and a pinched nerve in his neck so it's been difficult for him on both his weight and health. His contract is mostly going to be performance based. Even though he was overweight last year he was one of the best pass protectors but his run blocking sucked because he got tired. He DOES deserve a new deal, but there's no guarantee that he'll ever get back to rookie form.

Also, the Chargers have nothing to do with these players holding out. They are asking for top dollar while AJ Smith is trying to sign his TE and his rookie draft picks. After they're all signed then he could work on his disgruntled players. Now that Gates is signed, Mathews is next, then McNeill, then VJ. VJ signing could boil over into the season since he wants Brandon Marshall type money (lol, yeah right)

True but we also play a 3-4/4-3 hybrid and are thusly listed as DT's. It just makes it easier to list shit. Technically you are right though.

Only a few more weeks, I can't wait.
