If that's the case, I'm switching my vote to Ansah.
Honestly I think (hope) they realize they need to retool so I could see them going any direction. BPA so maybe even Jarvis Jones or Sheldon Richardson.

Warmack is one of my top players in this draft.
If I were the Vikings, even with all of our needs, I would snatch him up if he was there for us.

If the Albert deal happens, I think you were on the money with Ansah. You have to grab him for the raw athleticism and they do have need on the defensive line.

So guys, help me out here. I'm looking at CBS' mock drafts and 2 of the 6 have Ansah falling all the way to the Giants. Why, if he is so obviously the choice the Chargers should make, are those guys predicting him falling that far? I'm not being rhetorical here, I don't know anything about these "experts," just wondering what you guys thought.
He's raw. Has limited experience playing football, let alone at a high level. All the physical tools, but he's going to need to be developed.

I've heard he has a high potential to bust. Doesn't he have limited play too? Like he has only played one or two seasons or something?
He's only played 9 complete football games. EVER. If i read right.
He's very very very Raw, and the teams that need pass rushers seem to be 3/4 teams and he's going to be a 4/3 pass rusher.

I'm sure some of those analyst feel that Ansah is being "overrated" due to his lack of collegiate experience and they feel that scouts and teams won't fall head over heels for him on just being a pure athlete.
I think that's downright wrong. The Giants grabbed JPP at 15 based on pure athleticism and turned him into an All-Pro. Teams will grab Ansah and try to do the same.

So the guys saying Ansah around here aren't worried about that?
The other four don't have him falling past ten. It isn't a science. It's guessing.

I know, I just thought it was funny how he was either top 10 or 19 to the Giants. No in between.
Or 31. Whatever.
If only 9 then his number are fucking GODLIKE and every team would pay all of the money in the world to sign him.
The only DL prospect I like is Star, and I wouldn't take any of the pass rushers. I think there are 6 very good offensive linemen. If I was picking top 10, that's where I'd go. I'd spend 3 months lamenting the lack of impact skill players or pass rusher or QBs, but on draft day, I'd make the best of a bad situation. I think 6 OL are gone in the first 11 picks

Jerry Reese would punch Roger Goodell in the face and kick over half of the green room tables to get to the podium quickly enough to draft Ansah if he was there at 19.

I'd pay good money to see that.
The top of this draft is weak. Do you draft potential or production?
Six? In the top 11 picks? Who? No way does someone reach that hard for a guy like Warford or (lol) Barrett Jones. Maybe I'm missing someone.
Joeckel, Fisher, Johnson, Warmack, Cooper, Fluker.
Menelik Watson, Justin Pugh, and Terron Armstead have also been getting 1st round buzz.
It'd be Joeckel/Fisher/Johnson/Fluker/Cooper/Warmack; I just don't see Fluker going that high.

He's getting stupid amounts of buzz due to the whole LT thing. Like I said, I just don't see it.

This is the 1st of heard of DJ Hayden.If he's good I wouldnt mind the Pats drafting him.

If the Dolphins draft Fluker like some of these mocks are saying I will be pissed.
Yeah, first round buzz. Not top 11 buzz. Taking Fluker top 11 is insanity to me.
Logan Ryan already has his Pat's jersey fitted out for him.
And that gunshot you heard in the corner was BigAT offing himself.
He's the best. I don't see him lasting until the Pats now. The Dolphins could take him at 12.
You're going to love it even more when instead of 6 linemen going in the top 10, it's actually 6 quarterbacks.

It's weird but there's been a ton of talk about a big run on tackles at the top of the board. Yes, even Fluker which is why I threw the name out there. OL desperate teams are apparently considering it.

Who do you like outside of Eifert for Green Bay?
A lot of the mocks have Eifert gone well before we pick.

Another Rutgers CB?meh
Seen some mocks with the Pats ending up grabbing either DJ Hayden, Desmond Trufant or Jamar Taylor.
He's McCourty 2.0, you could get him at the bottom of the third.
If Albert's a charger, it has to be Ansah.
BPA! If the draft is run by the guys on this board it'll basically be bobbing for apples in a dixie cup with an apple sitting on top of it. Can't go wrong the way defensive guys are tumbling.

Either a big body on the line, corner or LB'er. Ogletree seems like he'd be a good fit/value when GB picks.
Ansah given the Albert deal.
Should be Warmack but I'll go with Fluker. The Chargers' offensive line has been absolutely horrendous the past two years.

I'd rather the Pats go with the bpa.

I just don't see how Warmack makes it past SD.
