Joe Alt isn't the fan favorite we were all hoping for. But he's most likely the right choice all along for the Chargers

I am a chargers fan who grew up in new England during TB12s tenure. I went years without having a good source for chargers talk and news. Thank you Director.
Director isn't a good spot... go check out boltsfromtheblue way better more informed resources.
He streams every game always keep the energy high. He knows it’s hard to be a Charger fan anywhere
Chargers fan from NJ here. Subscribing to the director has been a great choice, great community…
who has it better than us?
HE A GOAT
At me too I grew up in Vermont
As a Charger fan for 30 years , I was one of the few fans that was ecstatic to see us get Joe Alt. I witnessed all those years watching Rivers running for his life. Real NFL fans know this was a pick that needed to be done.
Same here I only wanted MHJ and Alt the best two overall prospects. Power run time
I’m starting to believe it is mostly the 30+ years fans that get this pick. 40 years for me. I wanted Alt, period. I want to beat the shit out of other teams and quit being soft. Tired of doing the same crap over and over again and getting the same result. Harbaugh is Shottenheimer that knows how to win the big games. Charger fans, trust this, you will look back on this pick and thank god we didn’t pick Nabers. I was ecstatic when I heard Alt.
Thank you sir, I agree. After 50 years (since going to corps school at Balboa Naval Hospital, SD in '73) of going to one SB as 17 pt dogs and not being able to even cover the spread I am finally happy we have an identity. Get ready for big Rock'em Sock'em Football my friend. We will finally control the clock and play defense. A lot of fans are not aware Justin Herbert's record is 25-14 when our defense holds opponents to less than 28 points.
My point exactly. We had great receivers but horrendous o line. Rivers was getting lit up on the regular. Good thing he was tough as nails but we don’t wanna see Herbert on his back like we did with rivers
Us “old” fans know how bad Rivers had it, he had a traffic cone in Clary. McNeil could have been great but his Neck issue caused him to retire. Hell we gave Gaither a huge contract lol. Last time we had a legit nasty o line was with good old Marty in 2004, Oben, Dielman, Hardwick, Goff and Olivea.
Showing those River images made me shed a tear man
Brilliant pick. Exactly what we needed. We need a CB and WR tonight
“We broke a curse” bro good work on this video 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I, for one, am so pumped about Alt and how nasty our online will be
Im 29 now, but ive been a chargers fan about 21 years now and to hear another chargers fan speak about that era of Philly phil got me emotional man... it was hard to watch because he would still put up 3500-4500 yard seasons CONSISTENTLY but we just couldnt stop shooting ourselves in the foot and never got 17 the help he needed... this was like some form of therapy for me thanks Director ✊🏽
There's a common theme in sustained winning in the NFL, get a top 5 coach, defense, QB and Oline and the rest is interchangeable ie Pats, current Chiefs etc. Receivers are a dime a dozen now and RBs shelf lives are so small they aren't prioritized. The name of the game is pressuring your opponent's qb and protecting yours. A great QB will find someone open eventually. This is why Dak looks so much better than he actually is. He's had a great Oline his whole career. And with Herbert quickly accumulating injuries, we need to keep him healthy and not turn him into Luck 2.0.
This pick was solid as hell.
100%
O line players & D line players are not exempt from what you're talking about. They are a dime a dozen also. If they even make it through 5 years of playing.
@@jdl619
Still no contest. The average shelf life is 2.57 years for RBs. Not to mention the steep drop-off even great ones have like Zeke. He went from best in the league to average in that span.
Whereas lineman will last considerably longer and usually don't suffer the marked dip in quality after a couple years. That is, if they don't receive a major injury.
100% Everyone that wanted Nabers are probably the similar types that wanted Simmons over Herbert. When you have an average or below average QB, you need elite playmakers around him. But when you have a great QB, you don't need elite WRs because a great QB can make everyone around him better by being well protected. Ask NE Brady or Mahomes last season. Sure, Jamar Chase is 100 but if Joe Burrow was protected at least 1-2 more seconds, they probably win that SB. This was a great draft and it's so refreshing to not have that Telesco head scratcher draft feel esp in the later rounds.
@@peepingtomlinson that is just 🤭 to say. like free Palestine. You don't give a QB like Justin a couple washed up TEs and washed up RBs and one way overpriced tackle & call that smart or good. This offense is going to suck & this sorry coaching staff will probably try to blame it all Justin. We got the coach that was the king at knowing nothing when it comes to QBs Harbuargh is an idiot at that. Chargers fans especially older ones know all that.
Harbaugh and Hortiz went with 'necessary' rather than getting the next flashy/hype picks. They actually won on the best pick in Round 1. He only allowed 1 sack last season so take that info and do whatever you want with it.
😂
Now take Johnson-Powers in Rd. 2 ----- and play REAL Harbaugh football.
JPJ for the win!!!
Jpj being trained by Nick Hardwick would be incredible 💯
Herbert’s completion % will be off the charts with this philosophy. 12-5 this year.
This is the best video you have ever done Director. I completely share your passion and enthusiasm. Your reasoning for Joe Alt to be a great pickup for the Chargers is absolutely correct. Thank you for these sentiments. Change is hard but we had to do things differently. Go Bolts!!
I had to take a 2hr. "Cool down" but now, as the draft takes shape- I see the genius.
Except for the decade of Means and Tomlinson the Chargers have always been a pass first, pass often franchise. We collect weapons and neglect the offensive line. This is a breath of fresh air. Harbaugh is a run guy, but if you go and look his offenses are usually balanced until he gets a big lead, and then he just runs people over with the run. You look at the top teams that win superbowls, especially ones that win multiple in a short span all have one thing in common, really good offensive lines. Doesn't matter if they are power runners, west coast, deep passing.
Well
Said!!
Joe Alt is going to help get our RBs a lot of first downs and goal line TDs and not to mention give Herbie the time he needs to execute. I can see how beautiful those screen plays are gonna pan out.
AMEN DIRECTOR, GREAT GREAT SHOW, GOD BLESS AND BOLT UP, you brought it lightning bolt tear of shame to my eye
The old Chargers selected the Notre Dame DE Jerry Tilley in 2019 with their first pick instead of the Offensive lineman they needed and I wanted!
I really needed this therapy as I really wanted a wideout
alt zilla is here to protect / shield / blow up holes n make opt - defensive corrdinators pull hair out
I like the idea of protecting our quarterback and allowing him comfortable time in the pocket
Good take director anyone who is old enough to see Rivers take after take , hit after hit. Dude was man of steel! The front office didn't give a 💩about him.
LOVE THE SHIRT BRA!!
I expected it. It's alright. We do not want Herbie to be injured and not have time to do his thing.
Well said, Director, great response to the Bears tweet. The passing on Nabers is going to hurt for a long while.
Notiiii gang! Let’s gooo BOLTS
Loved your comments today, Director - it brought a tear in my eyes. You were so spot on when you basically said all roads led to what we have now. I get so emotional when I think of it. So proud to be a Chargers fan, and SO grateful to the Spanos family finally coming to this realization. 💙⚡️
Exactly what I need to see before the draft! Let’s go!
I hope Keenan has a great season.
He'll always be #boltfam.
I'm ready and excited for the future though. Alt was a great pick.
Impressive pick by harbaugh
I was actually really glad we didn’t reach for nabers… WRs isn’t the foundation. Alt was the true pick
Absolutely alt was the right pick
BUILD THE WALL !!! go all in on Offensive linemen!!
Herbert had weapons the last 4 years. It just did not work. Glad Harbaugh is switching it up to what wins. Go get JPJ!!
Herberts weapons were hurt the last two years get the facts straight. Keep thinking ALL the top QBs that he's compared to can have elite weapons but he doesn't 🤦🏾♂️
@@joffyjoffa I'm not dissing him at all. he had weapons but a poor offensive line. there's a reason the offense never reached its full potential and that's because the oline was poor. fix that first and the weapons will come
Amazing pick! My biggest complaint, of many, about Tom Telesco was that he did not pick OL early. How many times last year were "analysts" saying Justin Herbert could not lead a comeback? There were 3 or 4 game where Justin got sacked. No time to make a play. I was at the Titans game and watched that very thing happen. Also, our RBs had a paltry 1.5 yards before contact. That's despicable!! Build up the O-line first. Everything else can follow. Bolt Up!
Would have much rather them get Payton Wilson with that 3rd round pick
I’m happy for you Gen XYZers. I have lived with the inept Chargers Olines for over 50 years 😢. For some unknown reason the Spanos’ never got it, until now. Director you are right on and we probably will win our first Division Title in I don’t know how many years. Soon after that we will get to the Superbowl. I have seen every single Superbowl and even a couple of NFL and AFL Championship games before Superbowl I. I never thought I’d ever see my team win a Superbowl much less ever play again in the Ultimate Game. Maybe the times have changed for the better and we’ll get our Lombardi Trophy ⚡️⚡️⚡️GO BOLTS
Great video director…. I was upset but now I’m accepting it. I have a few points
1. There is only one person I want with our first round pick next season and that’s will Johnson from Michigan
2. Wr Harrell from Louisville (previously from Alabama is the second fastest player in the draft… we can probably pick him up in the 7th or as UDFA
Great pick.❤❤❤😊😊😊
Let’s go!!!⚡️⚡️
The last charger Olineman that had a 6 letter name was Ron mix, 2 sacks allowed entire career⚡⚡
First connect
First baby!!!! Bolt up!!!! ⚡️
I'm shocked that everyone else is shocked, I think harbaugh and Hortiz basically spelled it out
Yeah trading Keenan Allen stings but having him for more than ten years and only winning one play game and not making it to the super bowl Justifies it was time to move on from Allen 🤷🏽♂️#Bolt up⚡️💯
Im right here with you director I was very mad at first than I thought these guys really know what there doing and now we have a fierce o line
Love U director…….
Cant believe im first ⚡️
2:10 the Joe Alt pick ALREADY looks better. Just look at how many teams went with Tackle in Round 1. Also, idk if anyone has seen it but the Titans really wanted Joe Alt to be on the board when they picked. We can't take this for granted. We were losing games with Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, and Herbert was playing hurt these last two years. Hell, there were times where Rivers played hurt. This was when Keenan Allen was tearing it up, and Malcolm Floyd was still on the team. We've been hurting at O-Line ever since Nick Hardwick retired. The old way of doing things wasn't working. Seeing Patrick Mahomes, Alex Smith, and Peyton Manning winning the division every year is getting old. The results don't have to be immediate, but at the very least I HOPE that Jim Harbaugh brings us our first division title in 15 years
There's a common theme in sustained winning in the NFL, get a top 5 coach, defense, QB and Oline and the rest is interchangeable. Receivers are a dime a dozen now and RBs shelf lives are so small they aren't prioritized. This pick was solid.
Outside of taking a receiver Alt was the guy I hope we took. Slater + Alt? Our O-Line is going to be stacked! Finally!! I'm even happier we took McConkey in the 2nd round. Dude's route running is amazing and he can play all over the field
💯🎯 - Alt was a great pick. Protect Justin!!!
After day 2 I now I hope we can land Troy Franklin in the fourth along with our steal with Ladd and junior colson
There’s a reason why we’re not GMs haha
How many times charger fans have we lost in the fourth quarter because we were too tired to keep going and going hard we got a great coach that knows how to build a team he got the best player on the board and now when we go into the fourth quarter guess what it's going to be the other team the other defense that's too tired to come on the field and play hard so that means we should win every damn game bolt up
the big layzy
There's no effin' way MY Boltz dont go at least 13-4 with how freaking loaded the squad is now.
Chefs and Donkies and Lost Wages better strap the f up, son!
Win the Conf and let's start that Lombo Shelf.
THIS YEAR!
LFG!!
Realistically, how can we expect to run the ball against Mahomes and expect to win..?? All it take is for one of or rbs to get injured and we’re finished. And who cares how it looks on paper, we needed a generational talent in the WR room to compliment our elite QB. We could have picked up Nabers and a RT in the 2nd round.. this team settled for the “safe” pick.
Bruh what we’ve had generational talent and we couldn’t run out the ball, casual. We’ve been losing by like 3 points for years it’s time to run the ball close out the game and punch some people in the mouth. Alts never been hurt too and with this team thats unheard of he’s what we NEED and is a GENERATIONAL talent
I feel the Chargers are going to have a team similar to how the 49ers are built and play style. Joe Alt being the Trent Williams.
I think Alt is going to be great... but I also think we're going to look back on redrafts and pick a different player every time. Oh well. Go get it Joe and shut me and the other haters up year 1. Please
Jim Harbaugh told us that the offensive line is the tip of the offensive spear! We now have bookend tackles that every other team wish they had. We now have 3 1st rd picks on the Oline. We still need a center.
Seriously if we can get Jackson Powers Johnson and have him learn under Hardwick that would be amazing!! Think about it Herbert needs a Center he can grow with, look at how Rivers was with Hardwick and Manning was with Saturday
Its fine if you all on baroad I'm not wasting my money on on this team. Dont care about the lies & the cons just to make me spend money on just another crappy season.
been saying this all pre draft. i wanted Taliese Fuaga because he played RT n 1 sack allowed his college career and 0 in 2023. But Alt to me is the best Overall i just don't know if he can make the switch to RT. me perosnally i Had Alt at number 1 LT and Fuaga 1 at RT in my rating. i think its still a good pick Alt is really good.
THANK YOU for the draft grind
3days of amazing content with The Bolt Fam
Honestly I think for needs the 21 UDFA is even better than the A+++ Draft
Actually more exciting than the home run of the draft
Culture Change
Coupon Tim did find gems in UDFA however lack luster for the most part.
Professor Z and Magneto made the rest of the NFL take notice and if they didn’t wait till preseason cause the team will have talent all over. Not worried about guys getting banged up cause next man up is another “guy”
Soooo stoked
Oh Alt is the right guy and Slater and him have already been texting back a forth.
Yeah I was mad about not getting our WR but like the director says be mad today and bolt up tomorrow so welcome to the bolts Joe alt
My dream scenario is we trade down in the 2nd giving up our 4th for an extra 3rd
Add McKonkey and Colson to this draft makes the Alt pick a LOT more palatable! I'm a lot happier tonight than I was last night. Alt will allow Harbert more time to throw and a big running back like Gus the Bus just might keep defense honest.
MUST HAVE AT LEAST ONE SPEEDY WR AND SPEEDY DB AND S TO KEEP UP WITH THE SPEEDY WR'S THE BEST NEWS CHARGERS WILL HAVE THE VERY BEST YOUNG TACKLE FOR YEARS TO COME HERBERT'S PERSONAL GUARD TO GROW TOGETHER WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP TOGETHER ALL IS WORTH IT IT'LL PAY OFF
Joe Hortiz slayed this draft in first two rounds!!! Period
Three rounds
Ya of course hes going throw the ball to the O-line & make joe run the ball. Just give it to him pulg him in as RB. This draft is not better than any year prior thats just stuff smart sellers say to stupid people to waist their money on thier crappy product.
This was a good pick , beef up that o line. We gotta win in the trenches.
Chargers have invested in OL the last 3 years. Spent top
Dollar on Corey Linsley,Brian Bulaga etc and drafted Rashawn Slater, Zion Johnson, Jamaree Sayler and Unfortunately injuries to Bulaga, Linsley and Slater has negated those efforts. With the Joe Alt Pick and Slayer healthy and Zion getting another year they are on their way to having a young and consistent line. Hopefully the new center is not a weak link in this line.
We have 3 young 1st round pick OL...All of them are good.
All makes sense now
The New Chargers still went back to their roots of getting a player from Notre Dame. Fortunately with Joe Alt there are not a lot concerns like there was with Tillery
3rd round pick, Junior Colson. We have another Junior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the pick. Alt is going to change this offensive line, protecting Herbert should number one priority for all charger fans
To make it even worse, the Tom Brady ad comes up before the video 😢
I love the alt pick . Im soo tired of pipkins/storm over the past couple years ! Its a breath of fresh air. Rivers wished he had this protection 😂
It's even worse because Rome Odunze is now also on the Bears so Keenan's potential replacement is now his teammate
Kinda hard for Justin Herbert to throw to ANY receiver if he’s flat on his back, running for his life, or worse - being unable to play
Man, coach better know wtf hes doing. I know what hes saying about QJ, and he very well might have a better year if we're running the ball more. But yeah man, yikes. Poor malik has to be a giant
Here's my gripe rumors are vikings offered a nice haul to move to 5... now I'm ok with going lineman we need it but is the plan to move slater to RT cause Alt isn't the answer at RT he's an excellent LT but there's tape on him working at rt and it's not great... now if we could have moved dwn gotten more capital and gone with an RT like Fuaga then I'm ecstatic but that's just me I trust the process and Alt it is here we go
This truly was a great pick. Who's Herbert's worst nightmare? Crosby...now we have a tackle who can really help protect him on that right side 👍⚡⚡
2nd round ~ McConkey wr georgia or center ~ jackson powers oregon
The fact that everyone thought that Harbaugh would draft a WR is laughable.
That's what I'm saying.
Jim and Ortiz said from the very beginning they want to protect Herbert and run the ball
Fanbase, "football is won in the trenches! We need a run game! We need to protect Herbert! We need change!"
* drafts O-Line *
Fanbase, "???????? huhhhhhh????? why didnt we go receiver!??????"
YEA THAT WENT OVER A LOT OF HEADS😂😂😂😂😂
I'm still gonna keep their jerseys though even though slay and ek left.
We'll get there -- the WR room stinks, and we still have no WR1 even, but I still hope Alt is impactful and our oline is rock solid all year. It won't make up for our WR inadequacy, but it is what it is.
Let's not forget that we also have, IMO, our best conditioning coach ever!!! "I will make you harder to break!!!"
Rivers deserved better im glad Herbert will have two talented tackles protecting him I have full faith alt will be a beast.
I almost started crying man, sounded like poor Lil Joe died. JEEZE
@DaBears … a winning season says hi 👋🏻
Larry Fitzgerald is not that good 😅 he's dependable but not great
AS MUCH AS I WANTED WR'S IN NEED BEST YOUNG TACKLE IS ALSO PERFECT FOR HERBERT'S PROTECTION FOR WITH OUT PROTECION HERBERT CANNOT THROW PROPERLY HOPE WE'LL GET A SPEEDY WR ALSO SPEEDY DB ANS S
Im watching this a day late and im going on record. LADD was a reach to move up for.
People are cry babies and not happy cause we got the best RT in the draft ? Pathetic.
Correction: best LT in the draft
@@chemstudent4826 He is playing RT for the chargers and was practicing RT at the combine
Storm and tevi were a headache
It’s crazy to me that as charger fans, we have constantly been disappointed and pissed off at the lack of protection that Philip Rivers had for 10 years of his career and the lack of protection for Justin Herbert. Why do you think he has been hurt several times. Then we take a sure to protect our quarterback and everybody’s upset about that fans. Don’t know what they want honestly, add another talented receiver is fine but it’s not a surefire thing. We should know that after drafting last year it’s a lot easier to find a wide receiver in the later rounds second third etc. a tackle Hass to come or else we’re gonna have to develop them
Having solid protection upfront is invaluable you have to build from the trenches, which is something that Tom Telesco did not often do we need to replace our wide receivers, but we were playing a lot of our games without those wide receivers anyway because they were constantly hurt. every position on our offensive line is a B+ or above with the exception of our center that remains to be seen
If this guy doesnt let herbert get touched ill be good. Protect Herbert at all costs!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Director. I have not agreed with any of your WR talk at 1. If you were paying attention, you HAD to know they would not take a WR with the 5th pick. BUT, I have to say this was one of the best pod casts that you have made, if not one of the best I’ve ever seen. As a Charger fan since 1973, it was only really the Bobby Ross (our ONLY SB appearance) era that we had an O-line that could protect the QB and run the ball. Stan Humphries was no Rivers or Herbert, but look what he was able to do with a running game and time to throw. I too have been angered and frustrated over the last 2 decades at the flat out ignoring the importance of the O-line, watching our star gunslingers pounded week after week. It is disheartening. We were in the process of destroying another HOF caliber QB’s chance to win a Super Bowl (Fouts, Rivers and now Herbert). This was a great and heartfelt message and I applaud you for it!
Oh it's bad enough they passed on Nabers but Chicago got Rome also. Just from a building a team standpoint not trading down made no sense then they give away a 4th round pick to move 3 spots to over draft a wr. Ya im out on this so called coaching staff being guru's of anything. Especially joe Ortiz being a draft guru or Harbuargh being some kind of Qb expert. But hey we will have the two hightest piad left tackles in the game wow.
Bye felicia ✌️
As I keep saying, everyone being mad about passing on WR. Iknow we allllllll want Herb to be healthy and play the whole season or would you rather have a top WR that Easton is throwing to in week 12 till end of season like last season cuz by then the WR and the team is nothing so think about it people. ⚡️⚡️⚡️
