probably already stated, but Jordan Matthews and Eku Leota are on PS -
Good moves that involved Morgan: Corbett to C RG, LG While you criticized the Johnson (WR) move, we had limited opportunity to get a good WR--the trade was brilliant. The draft--most teams find 2 or 3 keepers in the draft. 3 is rare, 2 is more common. KEY TRADES The Mike Jackson (CB) and the Johnson (WR) trades were great moves. Jackson cost the Panthers their 2024 7th rounder, a Lb who was not going to make the team; Johnson and a seventh rounder were acquired for a sixth round pick. Now, lets look at the Burns trade--one that many hated. Here is what we lost: OLB Brian Burns and his $30m price tag Here is what we got for the difference between Burns and Clowney: Jonathan Brooks (RB) best RB in the draft (pick 39, 2nd round) C. Smith-Wade (CB) made roster as CB depth (pick 157, 5th round) Robert Hunt (RG) $20m annual salary (average) Jadavion Clowney (Edge) $10m annual salary (average) Without a first rounder, it looks as though we nailed the draft. XL has demonstrated he can play when the ball is thrown to him. Brooks? We will see, but the best RB in the draft in round 2? Value. A stud LB in Wallace and a solid upgrade TE in Sanders. Without a first rounder, we found 4 players who should be regulars by next year. Our seventh rounder became a veteran starting CB. The difference between Clowney and Burns became 2 stud OGs. That allowed Corbett to move to center. While it is to early to know if all these moves pan out, I think the moves were brilliant. He started with a draft that featured a second, third, fourth, and seventh rounder. After the Burns trade, we had 2 seconds, a third, fourth, fifth.... This offseason will define Morgan. Stay tuned.

Back when Eli was in the draft, the reason they dodged the Chargers was because of Ryan Leaf. Archie Manning did not believe that the Chargers as an organization did enough to support Leaf, and that he had almost no shot of succeeding there. It's hard to imagine that they would feel any better about David Tepper post Bryce Young.
