San Diego surprises

From Kevin Acee's twitter

Chargers have change of heart with Sproles - 1st/3rd tender

then about 30 minutes later

Confirmed: Jamal Williams released

Williams had a $1M roster bonus coming up, and $5M in salary.

What what a crazy turn around on Sproles.

San Diego just let go of one of the top 10 NT/DT in the league...idiots.

[DaCityKats]

didnt he get hurt last year?

I still think there going to go after a RB, I don't believe this is lining him up to be the full-time starter.

I'm guessing that the $6M tag was a little too much for em, considering age and 1 game played last year. I hope he can come back with a smaller number, but if not, then it better be Dan Williams/Terrence Cody at 28.

id still draft a RB with the 28th pick if I were the chargers owner. then a NT in the 2nd

Not surprised at the tender offer, but the 1st and 3rd little surprising, since it appeared he was going to walk away. Still perhaps the FO look at the roster and realized they didn't have another RB. Not to mention the value Sproles has as a screen-pass or quick hitter for Phillip Rivers.

I'm thinking the other way, go later for an RB, barring Spiller sitting there @ 28. I could see them going Hardesty/Dixon/Blount later in the draft and having them behind Sproles and an FA pickup (Chet Taylor?)

M. Hardesty in San Diego is a great fit.

Yeah, I think that's what they'll do, barring a surprise drop on a prime O'lineman.

I am surprised at the highest tender, but not getting tendered.

J Wall is 34, and coming off of a season ending injury, this is not a total shock. Don't be shocked if he is re signed at a lower rate.

Also don't be shocked if Jackson, Merriman, Sproles, or Floyd is traded, but not for the tendered amount.
