    This is the kicker. I'm ok with taking on Rivers for a swap of 1sts but I think they'd have to give us more than just their 1st to make this happen. If those are the terms of the deal with SD then I say decline decline decline. Thanks but no thanks.

    I would very much like the idea of the Chargers trading Rivers for the #5 or #6 then flip that plus 17 for 2. I would much prefer 5 though. I think we can still grab Williams at 5 then Parker/Strong/DGB at 17.

    I like that as well but I don't see Williams getting past Jags at 3.

    Chargers are meeting with Mariota, guess the rumors are somewhat true. Mariota is also meeting with the Skins and Jets.... lots of teams still trying to setup workouts with him. Lots of interest.

    I like the way this is going. I now see the Redskins, Jets, Rams, Browns, Eagles, and Chargers as all teams that could trade up for him. That could make for a nice reward.

    Yeah...I don't want Rivers that badly, and when taking on that huge $15mill salary, it sucks all the oxygen out of the room, in terms of cap space...funk that noise. Plus, they have little leverage since he won't sign an extension with them and is on his last year of his contract. Better just to take Mariota and make the best of it.

    Other teams would have to mortgage their future with multiple 1st Rd picks, a 2nd and a 4th....and they think Rivers on the last year of his contract is worth all of that AND them taking our 2nd? They need to keep that SOB and shove him up their yang...sideways.

    You pay $100 million for a 35 year old QB, you deserve to be last.
