You know, I've always joked that AJ Smith looks like he's part of the cast of the Sopranos.
But some of the things he does, like moving up 20 spaces in the draft and getting a 2011 3rd rounder for Charlie Whitehurst, makes you wonder…
I love my team of historically talented underachievers.

I feel like something reall annoying happened here, but now its gone.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong.

Holy canoli
Fantastic deal for the Chargers. With the Cromartie trade, we at least have 3 3rd picks next year.
Didn’t Shaun Hill get traded for just a 6th round choice? Whitehurst is a Golden God!

3 3rd round picks
that’s worst-case scenario. We could have 2 2nd rounders and 2 3rd rounders.

Seems the Seahawk fans at FieldGulls have already begun to embrace our Charlie Whiteknight.

Charlie has retired the clipboard….and by retired I mean he used it to decapitate the ghost of Al Davis and then launched it into the sun.

Ironically
All the clipboards Charlie had once bore are currently being cut and made into a cross onto which Charlie Whiteknight will one day be crucified so he may die for the sins of Chargers and Seahawks fans everywhere.
Nice trade
Good value for the Chargers.
Considering the holes in Seattle and the depth of this draft a 40th/61st swap will not impact them as much as it benefits the Chargers. The chance of them drafting a starter at 61 is probably as good as it would be at 40th. I don’t know that would be the case for SD. Both teams would have been winners at that point. Getting the 3rd rounder in 2011 as well is close to theft. Good one.
