hi! I have decided to move the spreadsheets to Patreon. there are three tiers for now! follow the link here to subscribe for the ones you like. or do it later. or don't, I can't make you:
Bernard Williams, for those not familiar, is an offensive tackle who was suspended indefinitely in NINETEEN NINETY FIVE for weed after being named to the 1994 all-rookie team. he never applied for reinstatement and went to the CFL. he is 51 years old
you can tell from the way this man answers these questions that he is (unsurprisingly) living what he thinks was supposed to be HIS story through his son. saying stuff like "I tore an ACL", "I was a HS star", "I'm 36, my life is already over". sad honestly
You likely heard that Livvy convinced Baby Gronk to commit to LSU.
It's natural if you had some follow-up questions.
Who is he? Are schools actually recruiting him? How much is his family profiting off of these posts?

the Chargers drafted nine players over the past three days. I told you they'd take seven of them, plus hit on one of their UDFA signings. you want the proof? here's a thread:
one of my favorite things about Brett is that I can always tell when he's hitting the wall before another shot of espresso based on how insane his tweets become
Terrion Arnold is comparing playing corner to roofing right now. "if you're walking up an 8x12, 10x12 high pitch and you slip on that fiberglass and get a lil rocky, if you lose confidence in yourself you know you're gonna slip and fall. that's a lot like playing corner"
per
#sources
, Boston College WR Zay Flowers has had multiple meetings with the Chargers this week at Shrine.
someone to keep an eye on early in the draft. Flowers only practiced on Sunday before shutting things down for the week but he looked dominant in his 90 min session
Paris Johnson Jr.:
- is cousins with Barry Larkin, the MLB HOFer
- is mentored by Mike Garafolo as a journalism student at OSU
- speaks Mandarin and (some) Portuguese
- runs a foundation he started in HS
- has a beef jerky flavor
- learned how to salsa and samba
🚨 UDFA TRACKER IS LIVE 🚨
follow along to see where all the PFAs sign and who gets signed to minicamp deals! will be updated as I see things pls don't get mad if it takes a sec because I have literally not eaten the entire day:
the way the Greg Roman thing is being reported I would strongly recommend keeping an eye out for a Tanner Engstrand OC + Greg Roman RGC pairing for the
#Chargers
. Engstrand has interest in SEA too but is familiar with Harbaugh from FCS San Diego...
Chargers recap:
- I said to expect Alt at 5 in February based on what I heard at combine. got fooled by trade out, I'll own that.
- I projected McConkey at 37 on 4/7 and yesterday morning. LA up to 34 for him.
- I projected Colson at 69 on 4/7.
doubt me at your own risk.
haven't seen it reported elsewhere, but the Chargers extended kicker Cameron Dicker on the ERFA tender. his cap hit in 2024 will be $985,000, per Over The Cap
reminder that Jawaan Taylor (and Lane Johnson later this week) are not false starting. they've perfected moving as **soon** as the snap comes off the center's hand. it looks like a false start because the rest of the league's reaction time is worse
hi!
I've spent the last week chasing down every transfer in college football. nearly 2,500 entries later, I believe I have the closest thing to an exact replica of the portal as is humanly possible.
I put them all in this spreadsheet for you:
asked Oregon DL Brandon Dorlus what about Washington's offense gave them trouble the past two seasons. he called them "probably the most complete team we went against" and praised Troy Fautanu and former Husky Jaxson Kirkland:
things I have learned doing 2023 bio research:
- Keion White transferred to Georgia Tech (partially) bc he wants to get into real estate
- Christian Gonzalez makes a mean cajun shrimp pasta
- Devon Witherspoon academically qualified 4 days before Illinois started fall camp in '19
Ian Rapoport says on the Combine broadcast that Huskies QB Michael Penix Jr.'s medicals came back positive, and that they've been pushed back "under the radar". big news for the face of the 2023 Washington team
remember Rome Odunze for 2023/24. was a 4* recruit and has had a very solid game for UW today. 5 catches for 69 yards and has shown good RAC talent both with speed and strength
4.92 is a PHENOMENAL time for Roger Rosengarten. I think he's criminally underrated in this class. RT who can play LT but didn't bc of Troy Fautanu, should be a top 100 pick imo
for everyone asking about tomorrow:
- Nourzad, Cam Hart, or Malik Washington at 105
- TE/RB at 137 and 140 (Stover, Wiley, Allen, Estime) or maybe KAD, Wingo, K. Boyd
- Barner, Eboigbe, Vidal at 181 depending
- Jaylan Ford and Akeem Dent in 7th
is what I would do
Strong on Mike Tomlin and mobility: "If he's looking for a guy that wants to do read option and QB power, then no, I'm not going to be that guy to fit that scheme. If he's asking for a guy that can extend plays and step up in the pocket and keep his eyes downfield, absolutely."
ready to rock. still a little insane that I'm here, and I owe that to all of you. thanks for reading, watching, listening, generally consuming all the stuff this year and letting me do all this shit I've dreamed about. let's have a beautiful next three days 💜
Michigan LB Mike Barrett says new
#Chargers
executive director of player performance Ben Herbert was "one of the biggest reasons Michigan won a national championship":
I've gotten asked about this one a lot before this tweet, so just to clarify:
this is Jake Bobo from UCLA. he ran at UCLA's pro day in what was essentially a monsoon.
Bobo also chose not to test at the combine (oops).
scouts project him to be about a 4.59 runner in actuality.
you don't usually see this level of hand technique from sixth round picks. I'll continue to say that LG Jamaree Salyer (
#68
) should have gone much higher and has the tools to be a future starter
Chargers interim GM JoJo Wooden is in Mobile in team gear watching OL/DL one on ones, which is also where his focus was in Frisco. seems safe to say he'll be retained at this stage
as an annual reminder: tracking pro days is not my full time job. football as a whole is not my full time job. I promise you will not die if it takes me 12 extra hours to put in results because I ate dinner or went outside. harassing me about it does nothing for any of us
Uche training with a coach with pretty heavy ties to the
#Chargers
DL before he hits free agency next month. Michigan alum under Harbaugh projected for a pretty palatable deal by PFF... 🤔
UCLA EDGE Laiatu Latu turned a question about the Buccaneers into a chance to talk about Joe Tryon-Shoyinka, who he called a "big brother" from his time at Washington
@HaleyOSomething
chris paul/devin booker start bleeding due to an inadvertent elbow/headbutt/etc the same way steve nash did every year against the spurs, causing them to miss the final minute of game 3. the suns lose the game and momentum shifts in the series. suns lose in 6
Chargers OL coach Mike Devlin is helping run the OL drills here in Lucas Oil. LA has been heavily rumored to be taking an offensive lineman with their first round pick
asked Notre Dame OT and rumored top
#Chargers
target Joe Alt if he's been asked about moving to the right side and how he's been preparing for the possible transition:
here's Salyer again working with Foster Sarell on the stunt from the Rams. passes off the interior rusher and effortlessly moves the looping OLB completely out of the play
personally if I was a chargers fan like this guy I'd be pretty interested in finding out that a media member who's respected by other people I follow did a good job covering the team's plans for the draft, bc that would make me more well-informed. but this is a good response too
frustrating to see everyone clamor for the chargers to run press coverage, then to hear Romo clamor for the chargers to run press coverage, then to watch Kelce sit in soft zones for a billion yards

@SheaSerrano
would ACTUALLY carry the trading card around this whole time. thought he said he would as a goof. what an excellent thing to wake up to
fwiw re: the Chargers GM search, Brandon Brown is here in Frisco interviewing prospects with the Giants. would seem to indicate he's not the choice for LA
for everyone asking about tomorrow:
- Nourzad, Cam Hart, or Malik Washington at 105
- TE/RB at 137 and 140 (Stover, Wiley, Allen, Estime) or maybe KAD, Wingo, K. Boyd
- Barner, Eboigbe, Vidal at 181 depending

I regret to inform you all that my best friend, who just got last place in our home fantasy league, just successfully ate 28 eggs today and said it was not difficult in the slightest
so, yeah. pretty good draft for me from a Chargers perspective. thank you to those of you that rode with me this season, the fact that all of this paid off is just as much bc of you as it is bc of me. and to all the haters in my replies this winter/spring:
learn ball.
💜
Mike Williams to Kansas City on a cheap two year “let’s see what you’ve got” deal that has a lot of incentives attached would sure make a lot of sense.
sup everyone. if you don't know me already, I'm the guy that makes a spreadsheet for just about every NFL Draft related occasion. here's the pro day results/attendance one, with verified results for 200+ prospects and counting:
best guesses here:
Franklin - weight, is a specialist
Tampa - slow, penalties
Sanders - bad testing, can't block
Hicks - box safeties aren't real
Wright - plays RB
Dorlus - plays ???
Walker - senior bowl bad
Booker - raw, maturity
Rattler - out of QB teams
Trotter - nepo baby
Top available on the consensus board
39. WR Troy Franklin
55. CB T.J. Tampa
59. TE Ja'Tavion Sanders
67. S Jaden Hicks
73. RB Jaylen Wright
80. DL Brandon Dorlus
82. WR Devontez Walker
85. ED Austin Booker
88. QB Spencer Rattler
89. LB Jeremiah Trotter
⭐️ NEW SPREADSHEET ⭐️
it's that time, folks. the Pro Day schedule sheet is LIVE! 158 schools on the schedule starting with Indiana on 3/7 and ending with Montana State on 4/5. bookmark it ahead of time, because you're gonna need it:
this video shows an awful lot of interaction between James MacPherson and Malik Washington. Chargers just picked up an extra 4th rounder, where Washington is projected 👀
Here are a couple minutes of video from Malik Washington's Pro Day at UVA.... highlighted by a great catch in the corner of the end zone at the end. He had a record-breaking season last year at Virginia. It's possible he's selected on Day 2 of the NFL Draft in April.
yes, I have the combine measurements. yes, it comes with 10 yard split because the NFL website actually has it this time. please direct any and all complaints to my secretary, who is on vacation
