Of course the big storyline today at camp was about the Chargers 1st round pick being a no-show but Darius Philon got a lot more playing time.

With Joey Bosa absent due to contractual impasse, Chargers sophomore Darius Philon works next to NT Brandon Mebane.

An ex-Charger was also coaching the D-Line today.

There were some interesting developments on the depth chart, especially on Defense.

Very interesting: Kyle Emanuel running with Ingram as the OLBs for 1st team. Attaochu running with the 2s

Ladies and gentleman, Kyle Emanuel has jumped Jerry Attaochu on the depth chart to start camp. Emanuel's 2nd drill with starters

Attaochu opens with second team front seven.

The Chargers 4th round pick Joshua Perry is also buried on the depth chart to start camp.

Jatavis Brown & Dzubnar the 2nd team ILBs right now

Joshua Perry running with the 3s at ILB huh

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

Ryan Carrethers has dropped down as well.

Joshua Perry and Nose Tackle Ryan Carrethers appear to be on third team defense today.

This was the line-up for the second team defensive line.

Worth noting: Lissemore playing second team DE, Square second team NT. Palepoi rounds out second team DL.

The Safety group got a lot of attention. Here was the order:

For those asking about the Safety groupings, so far it's:
1: Addae/Lowery
2: Stuckey/Phillips
3: McCoil/McDonald

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

Adrian Phillips got another interception piling on to his already impressive minicamp.

Adrian Phillips interception in 7-on-7. He picks up where he left off. Two INTs, two PBUs on final day of minicamp. Chargers' third safety.

— Michael Gehlken (@sdutGehlken) July 30, 2016

Though Phillips got the lone turnover, there were a pair of Safeties who looked very good today.

Adrian McDonald almost had a pick on good coverage from McCoil

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

Mettenberger flutters a deep out, ball hangs, McCoil jumps route and drops pick six. Nice read by the kid.

— The Lightning Round (@Lightning_Round) July 30, 2016

I'm gonna be honest, this McDonald/McCoil duo is the most exciting Safety tandem to watch. McCoil almost had a pick 6

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

Pagano running McCoil as the box safety, love it

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

Towards the end of the day Dexter McCoil got some snaps with the second team defense.

McCoil now getting some snaps with the second team D taking Stuckeys spot on first series

One constant: Every RB has had two hands through traffic. Good to see.

— Jerome R. Watson (@SkinnyDuzIt) July 30, 2016

Jatavis just locked down Inman. His coverage skills on display right now

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

This 12 personnel group is so dope. They're bouncing from unbalanced to empty, and everything in between.

— Jerome R. Watson (@SkinnyDuzIt) July 30, 2016

Rookie Donavon Clark just put Sean Lissemore on the ground. NICE!

— Garrett Sisti (@GarrettSisti) July 30, 2016

Mager is having a hard time keeping up with Tyrell Williams. Coaches letting him hear about it.

— The Lightning Round (@Lightning_Round) July 30, 2016

Not sure what's worse today...punting or backup QB play. Both are agonizing.

— The Lightning Round (@Lightning_Round) July 30, 2016

Not a great deal of urgency or tempo but a lot of instruction and assurance in assignments. I'll take that.

— Jerome R. Watson (@SkinnyDuzIt) July 30, 2016
