So you might see them be a little bit more active.
I agree with you that they're usually pretty conservative on the market in that way.
They shouldn't be spending $14 million on the linebacker.
I will say my last thing on Devin Lloyd is just like, again, personal rooting interest perspective.
I think that pairing him with a Fred Warner in San Francisco and letting him be more of that kind of rangy underneath guy and letting Fred Warner close all those passing windows.
deeper down the field.
I think that that's a really interesting combination of body types and skill sets because those are both long-armed, lanky guys that you can kind of trust to be downhill players, but can maybe match up with tight ends, running backs out of the backfield.
I think that those two would make for a pretty interesting combo.
I think that he's ultimately going to stay.
I wish we could end on an explosive note.
I think he's ultimately going to stay.
I think if the Chargers are going to spend, it would be to retain him.
I think that they might look at the, you know, I'm definitely always versus Khalil Mack situation and say, Khalil has been great for us in the years that he's been here, but we can't continue to bank on a guy at this stage in his career.
being great at the level that Khalil Mack's been great at when he's healthy.
And I think from a contract perspective, Jonathan Grenard was in a very similar scenario when he left Houston and got to Minnesota, produced for him, and they ended up paying him $19 million per year.
I think that that's going to end up being a copy-paste situation for Odafe Owe, who has flashed.
He has flashed, maybe not top-tier, top-of-the-line pass rush potential, but true dependability, a guy who will show up on rundowns,
He's got the right physical profile for, I think, the way that the Chargers want to play out on the edge.
I think you give him a two-year deal for 19 per.
And hey, if he blows it out the water, again, this is another guy where maybe we revisit it at the conclusion of this contract.
