The 2017 NFL Scouting Combine is about half over now. Along with the on-field drills and events, the teams have opportunities to meet with the players for some 1 on 1 time. Some teams let everyone know the names of all the players they are meeting with, while other teams, like the Chargers, keep it as quiet as possible.
So who are some of the names that have been linked to meeting with the Chargers so far?
Patrick Mahomes - QB, Texas Tech
Mike Williams - WR, Clemson
Kareem Hunt - RB, Toledo
D’Onta Foreman - RB, Texas
JuJu Smith-Schuster - WR, USC
Jamaal Williams - RB, BYU
UPDATES:
Mitchell Trubisky - QB UNC

Take these meetings with a grain of salt. The Chargers did meet with Joey Bosa during the Combine, but that appears to be a rarity.
The Chargers have met previously, however, with a large number of players between the East-West Shrine game (EW) and the Senior Bowl (SR). Here is that list, assembled by walterfootball.com:
