Perhaps the Lombardi offence uses MW differently, which brings about a change in results. Boltnut's view is there are too many talented WR's in the pipeline currently, which is pushing a decision on MW. Adding Schuster does little in this respect. What do you think Schuster signs for? If the new design on MW is "Ok. New plan. Stop dropping the ball." then we are good to go. Schuster ? I don't know. McRugby would have to help with the new Cap and Free Agency contracts. You are getting him in prime money time. His rookie contract is over, and he is due his "big contract", so you have to factor that increase in. Keenan Allen is doing 20 million per year for 4 years. Maybe you can get away with 13-16 million per year ?? Hard to say. While I see the talent found in Schuster, I question the wisdom of spending that much on a WR when the WR group is reasonably sound. Obviously I would look at spending for OL first, but then DL or CB, before any WR. I get you love him, I get he is very talented, but I also get the need isn't that great. Keeping Herbert standing seems more important, eh?

The Chargers need a better #2 receiver—two years from now. Priority #1 has to be OL and secondary or 7-9 will be lucky.

Just what the Chargers need, another slow footed possession receiver. The Chiefs have three sub 4.4 guys (actually two are sub 4.3 guys) and a mobile strong armed QB to get them the ball. We have the QB and two 4.6 WR's. Adding one more is a epic idea.

Sorry, but KA, MW and HH as a starting group doesn't 'suck'. The statistics for the Bolts receivers probably show middle rankings, maybe better, I am too lazy to look. I do know the statistics for the OL show they 'suck', to use your word. Clearly the overwhelming need for the Bolts roster is improved talent in the OL starters, across the entire five. (to be fair, health in Turner and Bulaga) Buying a fancy new WR is not the best use of the cap money.

The Chiefs also have the 11th best OL according to PFF, while the Chargers came in at.....an inspiring 32nd.

I like Schuster...BUT, we absolutely need a quality starting OLT and OLG if LAC is going to compete in the AFCW for a Div title. If we positively can get both + improved depth at those positions in the draft then, sure, spend the cap on cute Ju-Ju stuff.

Facts versus snarky. You decide. Smith-Schuster is the holder of several NFL records, including being the youngest player ever to reach 2,500 career receiving yards and the first player to have two offensive touchdowns of at least 97 yards.

Go get 8 new offensive linemen, and do nothing else whatsoever to the rest of the team. We'll be the home team in the super bowl next year.

Use the cap space available this year on OL, use all the draft picks on OL, and just maybe TT fixes the issue. Then years 3, 4 and 5 of Herbert's low cost TT can address all the other positions of need that will certainly be showing up. Never work...... Just get two FA's for OL and first two picks in the draft for OL, then use all the other capital, be it money or picks, on the other club needs. If the four OL players were starting quality, TT might have fixed the OL enough. At least until the injury curse shows up.....

Who do you want between Corey Davis, OBJ and Juju? Oooooo, that's a hot list ! OBJ is a freak show (so you know I love him), and JuJu ain't far behind. (don't get excited. Chargers Org would make him a choir boy). JuJu is a year younger than Corey Davis. But Corey Davis would do just fine !! Thanks for telling me he's a FA. I can add Davis to the post mix.

Adding a fast WR2 makes sense. JuJu doesn’t, and his drama is not worth it for a guy who would be another KA.
