Los Angeles Chargers Daily Links: Chargers LB Jatavis Brown renews faith Authentic Keenan Allen Jersey , focused on bounce-back season - Eric Williams"What I credit him for is he played injured," Chargers linebackers coach Richard Smith said. "He's the kind of young man who's never going to use that as an excuse, but he played with a high-ankle sprain, so I don't think his change of direction and things like that probably looked like they did the year before.Does Melvin Gordon's real-world value match his fantasy value? - Scott SprattBut even while Gordon approached Tomlinson’s stratosphere of fantasy production, yards per carry suggested he was nowhere near the same quality of player. Even at the end of his prime, Tomlinson enjoyed peak seasons with more than 5.0 yards per carry. Gordon, in contrast, has yet to break 4.0 yards per carry in any of his three seasons. His yards-per-carry rates have been below even the average mark for running backs in recent years, around 4.1 to 4.2.PFF's top 25 NFL players under 25 for 2018 - Brett WhitefieldAs a rookie in 2016, Bosa earned the highest-ever grade for a first-year edge defender at 89.8. His 59 total pressures that year (37 hurries, 11 QB hits, 11 sacks) were the most we have ever seen through a player’s first 12 games, but he wasn’t done there. Bosa took his play to another level in 2017, solidifying himself as not only an elite player for his age Womens Virgil Green Jersey , but among the entire NFL. Bosa’s 2017 pass-rush grade of 93.2 led all edge defenders while his 46 combined hits and sacks since entering the league in 2016 ranks sixth. At only 22 years old, Bosa could hold the top spot down for years to come.PFF 2018 NFL Draft Quotable – AFC & NFC West - Michael RennerCantrell is a big-body receiver who shined in the Texas Tech Air Raid offense as a high-volume receiver.

Full pads. Grown man football.One of the most anticipated days of the offseason has finally arrived and with it comes expectations, intrigue, and a healthy dose of caution. After all, it was this day during last year’s training camp that Forrest Lamp was lost for his rookie season due to an ACL-tear.But crazy and fluky injuries happen all the time. Today needs to embraced by every player, regardless of experience. The rookies must get acclimated to the level of physicality at the professional level while the veterans need to shake the dust off and remember what it feels like to let it rip after the long offseason.Heading into today’s practice, here are several aspects to keep your eye on once the stretching ends and the pads start popping.1. After passing the eye test, will rookie LBs Kyzir White and Uchenna Nwosu continue to impress?Both White and Nwosu looked excellent and seemed to make the most of their reps during the first two days of camp. According to our very own Matthew Stanley (@boltfanindenver), White’s athleticism stood out while they went through individual drills:When asked about the first padded-practice, White didn’t attempt to hide his excitement. “It’s been a while since I’ve put pads on so I’m ready. It feels great just getting adjusted to everything http://www.sandiegochargersteamonline.com/kyzir-white-jersey , being around my teammates (and) trying to get this thing rolling for a great season.”Nwosu was also able to put his explosiveness off the edge on display as he made several disruptive plays against the second-team offense:2. With the pads on, will WR Dylan Cantrell be able to embrace the extra contact and take advantage of his size against the smaller DBs?On the first day of training camp, it was obvious that the former-red raider was struggling whenever a defender would press him off the line of scrimmage in 1-on-1 drills:However, Cantrell rebounded with a much-improved practice the next day, hauling in a number of catches on the outside and from the slot:The young receiver was another rookie who got to describe his mindset heading into today’s practice. “I think intensity’s going to be even higher (and) competition is going to be great. You get a better feel for actual football. We’re going to try to be safe and keep each other off the ground and protect each other.”3. Will the young UDFA corners be able to bounce back after a rough start to training camp?Two of the most interesting UDFAs among the 2018 crop have been CBs Tony Brown from Alabama and Brandon Facyson out of Virginia Tech. Over the last several years, the Chargers have had quite the luck finding diamonds in the rough at the position, with Trevor Williams and Mike Davis the most recent examples.With Brown, there is the elite athleticism (4.35 in the 40). With Facyson, you have excellent size as he stands 6-foot-2 and 205 pounds, but less long-speed (4.53 forty).According to our own Garrett Sisti, the two young corners had their fair share of growing pains through the first pair of practices:
