Back in 2016, they drafted Derek Watt out of Wisconsin, just a year removed from drafting his running back, Melvin Gordon, in the first round of 2015.In 2017, the team used their seventh-overall pick to select Clemson wide receiver Mike Williams before signing his fellow wideout, Artavis Scott, as an undrafted free agent.We also cannot forget the litany of Notre Dame teammates who are finding themselves together again in Jerry Tillery, Isaac Rochell, Drue Tranquil, and Tyler Newsome.To top it all off, the Chargers drafted their first quarterback in six years, nabbing North Dakota State signal-caller Easton Stick in the fifth-round of this year’s draft. They then Jatavis Brown Color Rush Jersey , in the name of potential synergy, signed his center from NDSU, Tanner Volson, as a member of their UDFA class.At 6-foot-4 and 303 pounds, Volson has ideal size for the pivot with adequate athleticism, as well. His athletic profile is pictured below and, as you can see, he is somewhere between “okay” and “good” across the handful of measurements. When it comes to these scores, a 5 is considered “good” so his overall of 5.7 still means he’s historically above-average at the position.Players don’t often come any more experienced or decorated than Volson. While at NDSU, he played in 59 career games with 32 total starts, the last 30 coming over his final two years.In 2017, his first as a starter, he was named a second team All-MVFC selection en route to a FCS National Championship win over James Madison University.As a returning starter for his final year in 2018, Volson ran the table when it came to accolades. He was an unanimous first team All-MVFC selection and a first team FCS All-American by the entire gambit of sporting publications (Athlon, Phil Steele, Associated Press, AFCA, STATS Rayshawn Jenkins Color Rush Jersey , HERO).He was also named the 2018 FCS ADA Offensive Lineman of the Year and took home the 2018 FCS Rimington Award, the honor given to the country’s best center at the DI-AA level.His five-straight years of being named to the MVFC Honor roll is just the cherry on top to show that the Chargers not only got a heck of a football player, but a smart one as well. (Note: it’s good to have a smart guy at the center position).Volson plays with excellent awareness and easily diagnoses stunts/twists by opposing defensive linemen. The guy just looks like he knows what’s going to happen before it happens. I also appreciate the way he doesn’t overrun potential blocks when asked to pull out into space. Far too many times, pulling linemen explode out of their stance and forget that a linebacker could be scrapping underneath the block, which makes for a easy tackle-for-loss when they aren’t able to stick their foot in the ground and turn back for the defender.In his final year, Volson also led the team in pancake blocks with 55. and allowed just two sacks. He earned the highest grade among FCS centers with a 78.6 grade according to Pro Football Focus, as well as the third-best Pass Blocking grade among that same group with an 81.2.With a handful of linemen sitting behind starter Mike Pouncey at center, who also have the versatility to play guard in a pinch, Volson will have to standout and then some if he hopes to find a place on the active roster.I like the kid. I like his intangibles and the winning pedigree he comes from, but all that means nothing now that he’s in the big leagues. Here’s hoping he finds success, with or without the Chargers.

The only proof you need of this is the fact that he posted 30 reps of 225 pounds at the scouting combine, by far the most ever by a punter. That’s impressive, but this list of players who didn’t put up 30 themselves makes it even more impressive.2019 NFL bold predictions: Derek Carr's back, Pittsburgh's wack - Adam ScheinJerry Tillery was a sturdy pickup for the defensive line. With Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram coming off the edges, the Notre Dame DT will provide the kind of interior disruption this unit has lacked in recent years. Talking to Telesco on SiriusXM Radio, he expects even bigger things out of Derwin James in Year 2. That's frightening Justin Jones Color Rush Jersey , considering James was first-team All-Pro as a rookie. And now he has a new running mate at the safety position, with second-round pick Nasir Adderley joining the mix as a ballhawking center fielder.This unit ranked top 10 in points and yards allowed in 2018 -- and that was with Bosa missing more than half the season. Gus Bradley's group is going to wreck shop in 2019.2020 NFL Draft: Compensatory pick projections for every team - Lance ZierleinThe Chargers lost three qualifying free agents (Tyrell Williams, Jason Verrett, Darius Philon) and gained two (Tyrod Taylor and Thomas Davis), so they are expected to receive a comp pick, and it's likely to be a fourth-rounder. However, depending on Williams' playing time and performance, there appears to be a chance for the receiver to push that pick from the fourth round into the third round. While this might be hard to hear, Chargers fans, you may want to cheer for Williams to have a great season -- except for when he's playing against your team.Ranking the NFL's top receivers in contested-catch situations - Ben LinseyWilliams spent most of his rookie season sidelined with injury, and when he did see the field, he was generally ineffective with a 52.6 overall grade. He bounced back in a big way in Year 2, though. Williams emerged as one of the better wide receivers in the league at succeeding when the windows get smaller, posting the second-highest receiving grade in the red zone due in large part to his strong hands at the catch point. He recorded five touchdowns on contested targets in total this past season. No other wide receiver had more than three.Most accurate NFL quarterbacks by pass depth in 2018 - Mark ChichesterThe Los Angeles Chargers’ pass-catchers led the league in yards after the catch per reception on short passes last year, and Rivers’ ball placement was a huge reason why. He ended the year with a 73.0% accuracy rate and the second-highest passing grade among quarterbacks on short throws.Social Media Information:BFTB Facebook Page: Click here to like our pageBFTB Twitter: Follow @BFTB_ChargersThe Lightning Round Twitter: Follow @Lightning_RoundThe Lightning Round Facebook: Click here to like our pageBFTB Manager: Richard Wade: Follow @RichardWade
