In looking at the cup as half-full, if Gibbs is known for making good linemen out of later round picks, and Brown should have been a 3rd rounder, then we got Gibbs just what he wanted.

Does anyone ask why the Chargers were going to take Brown when they are supposedly thrilled with Marcus McNeill, a second-rounder taken just a couple of years ago, at left tackle?

I thought they were going to use him at guard.

There RT is weak and they have no depth at OT. Having Brown would have given them insurance in case McNeill was hurt, and upgrade the RT now.

You ever stop to think that maybe the Bolts are not as pleased with McNeill as they once were?
