JetsFlyer Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 so the chargers have traded away or let walk almost 2000 rec yards in a week? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 They’ve in a week have lost Eckler in FA, cut Williams and traded Allen. No clue what they’re doing there besides trying to ruin Herbert’s career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjasi Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I think Mike Williams complements GW better if he is healthy, but landing Allen would have been sweet. Although - could they have afforded Smith and Allen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekeler, Williams, and Allen wouldn’t have been around for the completed rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenseed4 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Allen comes with a cap hit that we can’t afford. One that he refused to restructure if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem was JD setting the price he was willing to pay to trade for him too low. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're clearly going for a full rebuild with the new regime over trying to win now with expensive, aging players who were never able to get it done.

You're right in that YES we can manipulate the cap to “afford” any player, but there is a long-term strategy in play; one I’m not sure I would bend to get Allen who isn’t exactly the pinnacle of health. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really just the ol and qb are old. And if it works they’ll look to bring in another qb after Rodgers is gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure it’s important to note that just because they could have moved money around for Allen, doesn’t mean they should have. He’s 31 and is currently working on a longer term contract extension with the Bears. It’s understandable if they were hesitant to trade for Allen and extend him on a big contract when they were planning on taking a WR at 10, anyway.

I am of the opinion that they should be doing whatever it takes to win this year and maybe next. We need a serious upgrade to the WR corps and Allen would have been just that. How many opportunities to upgrade WR #2 is JD going to pass/miss on? What's the point of getting Aaron Rodgers and then running the team for the long term? Either go for it and try to win now or take the long term approach to try and build a long term winner. Half measures will get us neither.
