I think he was projected 4th round, he goes early 3rd to San Diego. Congratulations Chargers, you got yourself a pure D winner.
this is a great fit and a wonderful place to play (weather wise at least). from what i've heard they are going to keep him at RB and make him their pounder. good place for a good guy.
There is a bit of pissing and moaning round the office, not over Hester but giving up next years selection. For inspiration I hung the Hester "drive" wallpaper on the back of their door. They will get it soon enough. Chargers, with a ton of talent locked for the next few seasons, are a tackel away from topping last years effort.
lol, no I would have just picked him earlier if they really wanted him that damn bad, why give up a pick. If you love a guy and you want to draft him, well hell just go and draft him.
plus they lost the best blocking fullback the last 2 decades, whom the saints felt no need to keep--lorenzo neal. hester wont be the blocking fb i wouldnt think. not leading the way for LDT. i think he will be used more offensively--running/receiving.
Special teams phenom as well. Who typically was the first player on the ball covering kicks? Thats right, cornbread in the thick. Not bad for a two star outta Masterminds home town!
