I’m envisioning a return to “Marty-ball” style offense which was my favorite era of Chargers football. A balanced run/pass team that could beat you both ways but absolutely wants to smash you in the trenches.
Herbert’s arm keeps the CBs from creeping up. He threw for 4,700 yards and did not have a single 1,000 yard WR. Palmer lead the team in receiving yards that year. You creep up on Herbert, he will kill you getting the ball to the open man, whoever that is. You want the running game to force the DBs to creep. Come on up and I will dissect you. The running game was not respected and Herbert still got his.
The more time goes on and the more I think about it the more I dislike the thought of sticking and picking at 5. In any other draft with any other new head coach a wideout makes sense but not here. Harbaugh is going to build the tram the way he has ALWAYS done it, and a receiver at 5, no matter how good he is isn’t going to build the team the way the new coaching staff wants. I hope and pray we trade down with Minnesota and acquire the 2 first rounders this year and also their first rounder next year. We have a top 5 quarterback in this league, we need to protect him and also acquire a run game, Reciever can’t be the number one and only priority just because we lost 2. We need to build the trenches and the spine first, along with that, Reciever talent will be available down the board, I wouldn’t be surprised if 7 tackles go before our second round pick, it would be a huge miss in my opinion if we don’t acquire at least one offensive lineman, not to mention cornerback
If we're looking at what both Harbaugh and Hortiz have done in the past why aren't we talking about what they've actually done in past drafts? In Baltimore they took a wr for their first pick last year, a wr with their first pick in '21, another wr with their first pick in '19, and only 1 OL in the first round in the last 7 drafts. When Harbaugh was in SF they took a wr with the first pick in '12 and never took an OL before the third round and only drafted 4 that actually saw the field in the 4 years he was there. Where is this evidence of these guys prioritizing OL in the draft?
@@dandeitch3459 So if they trade back with Min and get their two 1s I'd assume the talent gap at the wr position would be gone so I wouldn't take a wr. The only O linemen I'd consider would be Fuaga or Latham but I still wouldn't want to do that bc I feel next year is much better to address RT and we would avoid paying our swing tackle $9M to watch most games from the bench. Honestly I'd probably go defense with like Latu or Mitchell and then try to pick up powers- Johnson at 23. But I also really like Payton Wilson so I may have to just take 2 defensive picks. There will be good wrs & linemen in the later rounds I want elite to great in the first.
@mmccracken8478 Sneaky upside of drafting Fuaga is we could very likely send Pipkins to the Raiders for their 3rd or 4th. They have a glaring need at RT, and no GM in the league has a higher opinion of Pipkins than Telesco.

Money, you keep keeping it real and thanks for your patience with all the people that kicked and screamed for this coaching staff only to then act like they don’t agree with anything they are doing.
I don’t have an issue drafting o-line at 5, however, I do have an issue drafting a left tackle, Joe Alt, and converting him to right at 5. There are no guarantees he will transition well, and with the 5th pick, you want to pick a player with the least risk and most upside. This ain’t it. Take MHJ or Nabers and don’t look back. If the Vikings trade is on the table, take it and draft your right tackle there.
It’s not talked about enough how historically bad the ravens were at drafting WR’s. It got to the point where it was a public tiff and rashod Bateman even had to comment
Money you gotta be a lil more objective when it comes to Tom . Cherry picking random picks to make it seem like he did a good job is insane. Just keep it hush regarding him we know he’s your friend .
We have no WRs. This was an obvious problem with this offense even with Allen and Williams. That’s why we drafted QJ now we have neither. Why the helll would we not draft a blue chip WR instead of hoping we hit on one later in the rounds

Well do you think Harbaugh and Hortiz we're planning on trading Keenan Allen as their first move!?!? Are we completely forgetting? They did everything they could to try to keep Keenan Allen but could not make it work? But yeah casuals, harbaugh hates WRs.

Money being all over the place contradicting himself for the last month doesn't help either🤦🤦🤦
Because they all bout covering Harbuargh & his coaching staffs butts when they screw something up it's going to happen they are just trying to get a jump start on it.
Money, don’t even waste your time trying to justify Telesco even a little bit. That’s a losing battle, one you’ll never win. He was bad, period. Let’s see how many teams want the sea of mistakes he brought this team for a decade.
I think he was bad at hiring coaches. Look at the roster we had. Mike, keenan, Ekeler, Herbert, derwin, Mack, bosa etc… just terrible coaches like Staley and Lynn
I personally would love to do what the Cardinals did last year. Chargers trade down, get a lot of capital, then trade back up if a guy they like is still there at like 8
Chris Hayre thank you for being the man of reason on this topic. Matt is insisting on trading down for the sake of trading down. We will not have a running game and a good play action pass game with Palmer and Quentin Johnson. I am like you where i am not willing to gamble on a third round guy.
@@Kyjones2 Sure i heard him. But he acts like we can draft a receiver in the third round and he will be as good as Marvin Harrison. Chris was exactly right, for every Puka there are 5 Quentin Johnsons. Do any of you want to watch Joe Alt struggling to learn right tackle while Nabors is putting up 1500 yards? How many of you want to see Brock Bowers on the Bangles killing us like Kelsey always does. Knowing our luck Kansas City will trade up and get Bowers to replace Kelsey, how would you like that? Justin deserves better than that, he never had a superstar WR or TE. But hey, Matt can play highlights of Joe Alt blocking and Trey :Pickens bringing him his Gatorade.
2 1’s and a 3rd and 4th rounder would should seal it. This is the year when the bolts need to load up with the coaches knowledge of this years draft pics. The value that can be found in these rounds is outstanding
With free agency the situation of the Chargers changed radically, we must not forget that the basic pillar of a good offense is the line TALIESE FUAGA is a very good option as a right tackle. The quality of receivers of this 2024 draf is impressive like Braian Thomas and many others. Do everything possible and go down by Brock Bowers. 💯💯✅
EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE knew Flowers was the pick last year but no.. Tom wanted to get the "project" WR, so no Matt we don't have to give TT some slack for hitting on 1 player in the draft and wasting our 1st round pick last year, Zion hasn't lived up to his potential either and Tyler Smith and Tyler Linderbaum were sitting there and are now pro bowlers that got selected 8 picks after us. For fans that have gone through a lot of shit the last few years you don't get to tell us who to not give a hard time to.
Keep talking about!! The last time the Chargers had this kind of energy is when Marty went 14-2. Something special is in the air again! Keep talking about it!!!
City Connect Jerseys i like when done well. The Boston Red Sox city jerseys remind me so much of the Chargers. Would be nice if we had an alternate yellow/gold uniform. All gold or gold and white
Matt you are acting like Justin Herbert is a terrible quarterback. Justin cannot throw a football unless the Great Wall of China is in front of him. They don’t treat Burrow or Mahomes like that. Lets just really help Herbert out and lets not throw the ball at all? Just hand it off every single play. Justin had his best season in year one and had a terrible offensive line, but he had receivers to throw it too. Now he has no receivers and you think thats fine, just add more lineman. I don’t get it at all.
Are you stupid? He's not saying that at all! That's just the type of football Harbaugh's teams play he's not going to air it out 40 times a game. It's going to be a ball-control offense.
I can understand why most of our fans would like the blue chip WR star pick in rd1, as today's high powered/deep throwing offenses are exciting. As an old fan, I remember the dominance of the "Great Wall of Dallas" This O-line was the main reason the Cowboys were the best dynasty of the early 90's, hoisting numerous Lombardi's and the reason why Emmitt Smith is in the HOF. Thinking out the box, I can see this new Harbaugh era emulate this philosophy. Regardless, us Charger fans are in for an exciting football era. Reserve those Band Wagon seats now, as it's gonna get full pretty quick with fair-weather fans.
Money… THEY HAVE JUSTIN HERBERT!!!!!!!!! You don’t win a Super Bowl today with a run game, you win it with your superstar QB!!!!! Ask the Eagles how their run game did them good… exactly. Enough about this garbage.
Anyone who has listened to Harbaugh (from sentence #1 to today), Hortiz, Roman, Herbert, Bischoff, and Brady can simply NOT think for a single second that Harbaugh's first draft pick in his second at bat in the NFL will be a pass catcher. #5 or a trade down WILL be an OT.
Honestly Harbuargh & them already got a young O line they just have to figure out how to use them & where they might play them. They signed the player's they did for a reason. So i don't think Harbuargh would talk up Herbert & not get him a # 1 wr. If he did all that & not delivering im out. Herbert could do that. Ok im still getting hot because no one on my team can make it pass 10 yards just to catch a football.
The Royal Blue Jersey with Yellow #'s from the 80's Air Coryell era is sweet! , but they always seem to lose when the Royal Jersey was worn. How about a Deep Blue helmet with matching colored face mask and a Yellow Bolt with a thin Yellow outer lining....
With 12 pics, we can take care of everything but there’s no guarantee they’re gonna be NFL ready players. Harbaugh has a good chance to pull this off. He might not know the players so well next year. 😊
Chris has a major league bromance with Malik Nabers. I think Odunze is a better WR than Nabers all day long. I owuld not take either of them at #5. Harrison is mighty tempting, but I still would take an OT. I may even reach down for Fuaga at #5 (hopefully the team can successfully trade down and still get him).
My only gripe is, if Harbaugh is as good as it seems, we will not have a top 5 pick again for years. So why not take your blessing and build out from there, trade back other rounds, but why not go best player available at 5? A bit of different perspective.. if we trying to hit on our picks regardless. So take the best non QB in the draft
I totally agree with Money. WR is not as important to this offense as OL plus. I'd rather have two or three bites at the apple vs one. I also feel like WRs are going to be treated like RBs in the next few years.
Oh dear, respectfully, I don’t think you know what your talking about WR is the most exciting/quick/athletic position on the field and unless they change rules they always will be. 7 on 7s are very popular for kids coming up, that means NO O-line.
And as far as our o-line, doesn’t better coaching and team philosophy make players better, our o-line as far as names, has plenty of room for improvement but they are not THAT awful..
Exactly. We are not going to be able to fix an overhaul every single position group. I have faith in this coaching staff getting the most out of our offensive line already have five starters. We legitimately cannot run a three-wide receiver set as a roster is currently constructed right now. We have no bodies in the wide receiver room 🤦🤦 coaching can't fix a lack of personnel. A trade back is fine to take a lineman, just not at 5
@@kevincurnick exactly, really dont like the idea of taking a lineman regardless unless it’s round 2+ but as far as our 5th pick in the best WR draft in a long time, when will we ever get that high of a pick again? Considering we have a great staff now, I kinda would be pissed if we took anything other than WR or maybe a CB. Every player we have is an NFL player so we need to fill out these rooms with best players available. Our o line has plenty of potential as it stands now
It’s them! My dad before he passed away told me he sold my soul to La Santa Muerte, I had seen him in 21 years!! I already had a tattoo of “La Santa Muerte”on my arm! I saw sculls in my dream and I had my friend tattoo it!! I will die before I pass this demon to my children!!!
People who don't like it can lump it ,when any team hires a new coaching staff, they can play football the way they they want to, They will bring us our first SUPERBOWL. the way they feel fit and thats what iam excited about PERIOD
I don't mind if they trade down, but they could trade down from 37 or 110 or 106 both top of day 2 & 3 for draft capital too. The only thing i worry about not drafting one of the top 3 WR's is that the Ravens have never been able to draft a WR1 and the last really good WR the chargers drafted was Keenan. It isn't as easy as Money seems to think that you can just draft any WR & Herbert can make it work. We saw how that went with QJ last year and he was a 1st round pick. Herbert had better chemistry with Alex Erikson, Deandre Carter, Guyton & Tbilly easily. They should have stole scouts from the rams instead of their D.C. in 2021.
Chris brings up having a Weapon.. a single weapon on this team and draft one, and every single time you see Matts eyes roll back this dude is just ridiculous might as well draft all OL and DL to make this dude happy.
I get Jim Harbaugh doesn’t throw the football all over the field like this modern day nfl, but there is something to be said for playing an exciting style of football and utilizing your quarterbacks best asset, his arm strength. I don’t mind if it’s more balance run and pass as long as they are not using Herbert as a glorified game manager like they did JJ McCarthy, because then they would be wasting Herbert’s talents. Remains to be seen how this is going to look, but for all the people that wanted Harbaugh, this is the way he wants to play so be prepared.

I get what Money means about the Jets and Bowers when they have an aging and infirm QB to protect. I think that cuts both ways, however. They know this will be the only window to ride Rogers into the big time. Maybe one year more? Maybe. I think they may want Bowers precisely because of Rogers' window. Give him every weapon possible. They have an upper level defense. Plus, I bet that that is what he is lobbying for.
Honesty I think they stick & pick it will be Wr & who ever they think is best for system. They may trade down after that. I think they might just to fill the wholes on D fence because its way more hole on D than O.
The Cardinals made it known today they want the same deal the Niners made to trade up for Lance, THREE 1st rounders and a 3rd round. Chargers need to get tough too. Tell the Vikings they can have the 5th pick for 11, 23 and Jordan Addison or no deal. If not, get an elite WR for Herbert at 5. This is the deepest OL draft ever. There will still be plenty to get in rounds 2-6 and free agency. There will be zero elite WRs rounds 2-6 and free agency.
I would not be shocked if Harbaugh ends up with Brock Bowers. The tight end played at that positions capacity requires a special person with a high IQ. It is imperative to know each play and responsibility to make that play work at the line of scrimmage. Just look at who they've acquired through free agency. That's the blueprint. Kelce, Gronk, Kittle type. My pet peeve applies to the quarterback position as well. Absolutely no pretend dummies.
he's an idiot who is biased on his nostalgia of watching what Harbaugh did at Stanford because he was casting those games, its clouding his mind when it comes to this draft and he's getting mad annoying thinking good WRs just can be plucked off trees when WE LITERALLY saw that's not the case last year with our 1st round pick
Nobody knows this draft class better than Harbaugh, I have no doubt he drafts some latter round gems!
I’m envisioning a return to “Marty-ball” style offense which was my favorite era of Chargers football. A balanced run/pass team that could beat you both ways but absolutely wants to smash you in the trenches.

Are you stupid? He's not saying that at all! That's just the type of football Harbaugh's teams play he's not going to air it out 40 times a game. It's going to be a ball-control offense.
Where is the draft party going to be this year?
I can understand why most of our fans would like the blue chip WR star pick in rd1, as today's high powered/deep throwing offenses are exciting. As an old fan, I remember the dominance of the "Great Wall of Dallas" This O-line was the main reason the Cowboys were the best dynasty of the early 90's, hoisting numerous Lombardi's and the reason why Emmitt Smith is in the HOF. Thinking out the box, I can see this new Harbaugh era emulate this philosophy. Regardless, us Charger fans are in for an exciting football era. Reserve those Band Wagon seats now, as it's gonna get full pretty quick with fair-weather fans.
They won nothing & they always made sure they had a true #1 wr in all those years. I remember them also.
Should the Chargers have traded down and skipped on L.T. or J.Seau?
Purple like the color of a true lightning strike looks in Google images
Money… THEY HAVE JUSTIN HERBERT!!!!!!!!! You don’t win a Super Bowl today with a run game, you win it with your superstar QB!!!!! Ask the Eagles how their run game did them good… exactly. Enough about this garbage.
Charger fans that grew up LT era and before are ok with a lineman preferably with a trade down. Winning in the trenches is key
Good morning, MATT AND CHRIS, IT'S ME TIMOTHY FROM VISTA CA, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MASON PINES, TE IN COLLEGE?
Anyone who has listened to Harbaugh (from sentence #1 to today), Hortiz, Roman, Herbert, Bischoff, and Brady can simply NOT think for a single second that Harbaugh's first draft pick in his second at bat in the NFL will be a pass catcher. #5 or a trade down WILL be an OT.
Honestly Harbuargh & them already got a young O line they just have to figure out how to use them & where they might play them. They signed the player's they did for a reason. So i don't think Harbuargh would talk up Herbert & not get him a # 1 wr. If he did all that & not delivering im out. Herbert could do that. Ok im still getting hot because no one on my team can make it pass 10 yards just to catch a football.
The Royal Blue Jersey with Yellow #'s from the 80's Air Coryell era is sweet! , but they always seem to lose when the Royal Jersey was worn.
How about a Deep Blue helmet with matching colored face mask and a Yellow Bolt with a thin Yellow outer lining....
Yep! This will be Charger Marty type deal! Spiller should have a good year.
Greg asked about the 3rd helmet, but what's the 2nd?
I would like to see a Yellow Helmet with Navy Bolt.
Or Royal Blue with Yellow Bolts
We need a good WR at pick No. 5 period and start trading down in the later rounds
Turning Justin Herbert into JJ at Michigan should be a federal crime
Wondering when Mack and Bosa show up at training camp. Monday maybe?
I’m taking the house in Cabo
AT 9 million a year and Dissly playing next to him, Pipkins is serviceable for now. Trade down, take and EDGE, CB and a WR with your high 2.
With 12 pics, we can take care of everything but there’s no guarantee they’re gonna be NFL ready players. Harbaugh has a good chance to pull this off. He might not know the players so well next year. 😊
I'm saying no matter who Chargers pick on the draft Money will give them an A+ grade....😂
Royals!!!
Chris has a major league bromance with Malik Nabers. I think Odunze is a better WR than Nabers all day long. I owuld not take either of them at #5. Harrison is mighty tempting, but I still would take an OT. I may even reach down for Fuaga at #5 (hopefully the team can successfully trade down and still get him).
We have to trust the Harbaugh braintrust! Let him build it from the ground up like he always has, with success.
Black is a must!
Royal blue helmet, pants, and jersey with the gold lettering
My only gripe is, if Harbaugh is as good as it seems, we will not have a top 5 pick again for years. So why not take your blessing and build out from there, trade back other rounds, but why not go best player available at 5? A bit of different perspective.. if we trying to hit on our picks regardless. So take the best non QB in the draft
I totally agree with Money. WR is not as important to this offense as OL plus. I'd rather have two or three bites at the apple vs one. I also feel like WRs are going to be treated like RBs in the next few years.
🤦🤦🤦
Oh dear, respectfully, I don’t think you know what your talking about WR is the most exciting/quick/athletic position on the field and unless they change rules they always will be. 7 on 7s are very popular for kids coming up, that means NO O-line.
And as far as our o-line, doesn’t better coaching and team philosophy make players better, our o-line as far as names, has plenty of room for improvement but they are not THAT awful..
Exactly. We are not going to be able to fix an overhaul every single position group. I have faith in this coaching staff getting the most out of our offensive line already have five starters. We legitimately cannot run a three-wide receiver set as a roster is currently constructed right now. We have no bodies in the wide receiver room 🤦🤦 coaching can't fix a lack of personnel. A trade back is fine to take a lineman, just not at 5
@@kevincurnick exactly, really dont like the idea of taking a lineman regardless unless it’s round 2+ but as far as our 5th pick in the best WR draft in a long time, when will we ever get that high of a pick again? Considering we have a great staff now, I kinda would be pissed if we took anything other than WR or maybe a CB. Every player we have is an NFL player so we need to fill out these rooms with best players available. Our o line has plenty of potential as it stands now
It’s them! My dad before he passed away told me he sold my soul to La Santa Muerte, I had seen him in 21 years!! I already had a tattoo of “La Santa Muerte”on my arm! I saw sculls in my dream and I had my friend tattoo it!! I will die before I pass this demon to my children!!!
People who don't like it can lump it ,when any team hires a new coaching staff, they can play football the way they they want to, They will bring us our first SUPERBOWL. the way they feel fit and thats what iam excited about PERIOD
Yea let's compare high-school football to the nfl to justify your point.
The only difference between us fans & these people is we don't get paid bye the Chargers to hype them we actually pay them to hype them 😮.
Why do you guys keep saying 11 and 27? I thought the draft scenario with Minnesota would be 11 and 23?
I don't mind if they trade down, but they could trade down from 37 or 110 or 106 both top of day 2 & 3 for draft capital too.
The only thing i worry about not drafting one of the top 3 WR's is that the Ravens have never been able to draft a WR1 and the last really good WR the chargers drafted was Keenan. It isn't as easy as Money seems to think that you can just draft any WR & Herbert can make it work. We saw how that went with QJ last year and he was a 1st round pick.
Herbert had better chemistry with Alex Erikson, Deandre Carter, Guyton & Tbilly easily.
They should have stole scouts from the rams instead of their D.C. in 2021.
Lol he haven’t mentioned Williams and Allen leaving 😂
I am with Money. Odunze is a better pick than Nabers.
Throwback Navy with updated uniforms 1988-2006
Chris brings up having a Weapon.. a single weapon on this team and draft one, and every single time you see Matts eyes roll back this dude is just ridiculous might as well draft all OL and DL to make this dude happy.
I get Jim Harbaugh doesn’t throw the football all over the field like this modern day nfl, but there is something to be said for playing an exciting style of football and utilizing your quarterbacks best asset, his arm strength. I don’t mind if it’s more balance run and pass as long as they are not using Herbert as a glorified game manager like they did JJ McCarthy, because then they would be wasting Herbert’s talents. Remains to be seen how this is going to look, but for all the people that wanted Harbaugh, this is the way he wants to play so be prepared.
Y’all think Dobbins would love to play for the Bolts after KC used him as leverage against the RB FA they signed back?

Nico is in the conversation because he was running with Tank Dell stop with that nonsense it might work on ignorant fans that don't pay attention to other teams not going to work on me.
Wouldn’t mind drafting a DL in the first
Money, if they trade back from 5 and only get 11 and 36, it's a DISASTER.
Go BOLTZ ⚡⚡
WRs IN EVERY ROUND THIS YEAR. JTFC
Looking at Harbaugh’s record historically, and a totally new philosophy, let’s give it a shot. The way we have been doing wasn’t working.
Trade down w/ Min & Draft L.Latu, A.Mims, P.Wilson, J.Brooks & T'Vondrae Sweat. Then tell Ben Herbert we expect to see Bosa, Mack, D.James, R.Slater & our 5 new guys to be 100% healthy. That's why we're paying you the big $.. No pressure.
Or you could look at drafting Nabers or MHJ as defenses not being able to load the box to stop your run game
I get what Money means about the Jets and Bowers when they have an aging and infirm QB to protect. I think that cuts both ways, however. They know this will be the only window to ride Rogers into the big time. Maybe one year more? Maybe.
I think they may want Bowers precisely because of Rogers' window. Give him every weapon possible. They have an upper level defense. Plus, I bet that that is what he is lobbying for.
What are the 3 things Harbaugh will never do?
Honesty I think they stick & pick it will be Wr & who ever they think is best for system. They may trade down after that. I think they might just to fill the wholes on D fence because its way more hole on D than O.
The Cardinals made it known today they want the same deal the Niners made to trade up for Lance, THREE 1st rounders and a 3rd round. Chargers need to get tough too. Tell the Vikings they can have the 5th pick for 11, 23 and Jordan Addison or no deal. If not, get an elite WR for Herbert at 5. This is the deepest OL draft ever. There will still be plenty to get in rounds 2-6 and free agency. There will be zero elite WRs rounds 2-6 and free agency.
I pray Brock Bowers is a Charger on April 25th…
I would not be shocked if Harbaugh ends up with Brock Bowers.
The tight end played at that positions capacity requires a special person with a high IQ. It is imperative to know each play and responsibility to make that play work at the line of scrimmage.
Just look at who they've acquired through free agency.
That's the blueprint.
Kelce, Gronk, Kittle type.
My pet peeve applies to the quarterback position as well.
Absolutely no pretend dummies.
Money just said Nico Collins is in the elite WR category now. Collins is the 3rd best wr on his team man!
Lol he said multiple things describing Collins that aren't true 🤣🤣🤣
he's an idiot who is biased on his nostalgia of watching what Harbaugh did at Stanford because he was casting those games, its clouding his mind when it comes to this draft and he's getting mad annoying thinking good WRs just can be plucked off trees when WE LITERALLY saw that's not the case last year with our 1st round pick
okay greg!
Helmet - sunburnt yellow/orange with dark blue lighting bolt.
Matte Royal Blue, with the shied horse logo in white or yellow.
Stick and Pick at 5 means we are playing for 25....too many holes unless its just best draft ever 2-7....
