Draft Scouting Time:
I need:
QB
RBx2
WR
OG
OT
DE
DT
2xLB
CB
S
Now we are losing 2xTE next year, so I could grab depth there as well. I could use a starter quality guy at SS (maybe) DT (maybe), OT (for Starks’s eventual replacement), WR (for Wild). Because I signed starters in the FA period, I basically have the luxury of BAP if I want. Although, ideally, I end up with that depth in the areas listed above.
I use interviews for LB, S, WR, TE and RB.
I finish up FA and let’s hit that draft thing.
The 3031 NFL Amateur Draft
The Chargers get things started with a DT.
Our 1.31 pick arrives and I take a look to see what’s what.
We have a stud OG on the board – Perry Wells. But with OG Blades and Lamar Rasic on my roster, that might be the one place I don’t have space for a BAP pick. Unless I moved him to OT?
There are some solid OTs on the board too, although nothing like Wells
I like FS Daquan Hartwig and SLB Brad Willing here too.
So….where do I go?
Hartwig? Willing? OT Sergio Keith? Wells?
I pick up OT Keith – he has two red and two blue scores, and a green one in his IQ Test.
Wow. The 2.31 arrives and TE Tony Gasho, the best TE on the board, is still there. After interviewing him he came back underrated. Fills a future need. My best guess is that he’s likely a Brett Kovacs sort of TE in the low 50s.
All of the other players I was eyeing fell by 2.12. I’m comfortable with Gasho. I snag him.
The 3031 Jacksonville Jaguars Draft

2.31 TE Tony Gasto, Duke
3.31 SLB Van Ellwood, Eastern Kentucky
4.31 DT Zachery Stevenson, Iowa
5.31 FS Corwin Lynch, Tennessee
6.31 WR Vincent Cunningham, Duke
7.22 RB Efrain Austin, Indiana
