Locked On LAC 7-Round Mock Draft: Part 1

Rashawn Slater Falls to the Chargers: What a night! Today we recap the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft and we react to the home run pick of Rashawn Slater, Telesco and Staley's thoughts on the pick and the best available players left on Day 2. It really happened. Rashawn Slater somehow fell to the Chargers and we tell you why this was the no-brainer pick and all of the reasons you should be most excited for the team's new franchise left tackle. Head Coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco spoke with the media and we get into their thoughts on Slater playing left tackle, the attractive traits that drew them to make the pick and investing in the trenches. With all of the excitement of Day 1, we still have six rounds remaining and we break down all of the talented players still on the board for the Chargers that could make sense for them on Day 2.

Has the Chargers Defense Improved?: On today's show we discuss the Chargers releasing a longtime scout and get into voicemails about if the defense has improved this offseason and where the team ranks in the AFC. We start today by getting into the Chargers parting ways with long time scout Tom McConnaughey who helped draft some stars like Justin Herbert, Derwin James and LaDainian Tomlinson. We break down why he was let go and why you also have to take a look at the misses as much as the success stories. To start our voicemails today we wonder aloud how much the Chargers improved their defense since last year and how excited we are to see the team's new look secondary. Another voicemail we received raised a great question: Where do the Chargers rank in the AFC? We take a look at how the Chargers stack up against some very talented AFC teams and why the expectations may be set a little too high.

Ten Draft Sleepers for the Chargers: On today's show we discuss ten draft sleepers that the Chargers should target according to The Athletic's Daniel Popper and which Chargers could be switching to single-digit numbers. Sleeper picks are some of the funnest prospects to look into and we start by getting into a couple of blocking tight ends, and some offensive lineman that the Chargers could bring in to build up their depth at the position. One of the key things you look for in sleepers is the ability to play special teams and we get into some sleepers at defensive back and linebackers that could be Day 1 contributors in that regard. We also take a look at a couple of defensive backs that a little riskier but would make sense if the Chargers want to double down in the secondary. The NFL approved six new rule changes and we get into the ones that interest us most and which Chargers, like Derwin James and Mike Williams, could be moving back to their college numbers in the single digits.
