Los Angeles Chargers General Thread

Chargers giving Justin Herbert some protection this year with Joe Alt coming back as well:

Tyler Biadasz

The Chargers signed Tyler Biadasz on March 6.
What It Means: The Chargers have found their new starting center and filled one of their biggest roster needs in free agency. Biadasz is a veteran who has been one of the NFL's most consistent centers over the past five seasons and was also a Pro Bowler in 2022. He should steadily anchor the middle of the Bolts offensive line and provide leadership alongside Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt while helping keep Justin Herbert upright more often.

Charlie Kolar

The Chargers are signing TE Charlie Kolar to a three-year $24.3 million contract that makes him the NFL’s highest-paid blocking tight end, sources tell The Insiders.

Cole Strange

The Chargers have agreed to a two-year, $13 million deal with Dolphins offensive lineman Cole Strange.


Trevor Penning

Former New Orleans Saints first-round pick offensive tackle Trevor Penning will be extending his stay with the Los Angeles Chargers, signing a one-year contract worth $4.5 million on the opening day of NFL free
 
Generational bust gets to stay employed. This draft is filled with very good White QBs and all that has gone on in the QB market is resigning and shuffling around mediocre blacks that are awful.

 
The world's whitest black man did a lot with not a lot to work with in Miami for a while. I'm all for him getting the best out of Justin Herbert because it will also mean getting the most out of Ladd McConkey. And from what I've been reading from various pundits, they expect McConkey to be deployed as the Chargers' number one receiver this season. We shall see but it almost has to be an improvement over LA's offense last year.

Chargers OC Mike McDaniel plans to refine QB Justin Herbert’s footwork, timing and anticipation to unlock the “best football of his career.”
McDaniel explained Herbert’s strengths and weaknesses to ESPN’s Kris Rhim, noting that Herbert performs efficiently when he either gets the ball out in under 2.4 seconds or less, or “extends plays and launches it down the field.” However, Herbert’s efficiency decreases as the time to throw reaches three seconds. McDaniel plans to “max out those quick throws,” which was a staple in McDaniel’s Dolphins’ offenses, while also allowing Herbert to extend plays at times. That said, McDaniel does not want to make the offense reliant on Herbert’s ability to go above and beyond. He stopped short of explaining that aspect, but McDaniel’s offenses typically feature an efficient, voluminous run game. We expect that to be the case here as well. Herbert finished as the QB10 last year. He has decent odds of working his way up the QB1 tier this year.
