NFL Network says TE David Njoku and the Chargers have agreed to terms. One-year $8million deal.

I thought he might be good for us on a one year deal.

Too much for a guy on his last legs. Let them rookies play...

[oldno82]

You're probably right...also saw this quote today on our first rounder:

op Pick: Vega Ioane was noted for not allowing a sack or committing a holding penalty in his final two seasons.

I think we might see a number of rookies get significant playing time, and, play well.

[oldno82]

It does seem that we have a strong class of draftees. I think Minter, being young and new himself, will give rookies more opportunities to play than Harbs did. I think Harbs was more for veteran players playing that 1st and even 2nd year ones.

I am for letting rookies make a case for themselves.  Certain positions like te I don’t see as major contributors.  Get that rb a bunch of reps.  Also see if he can be a multitool with his unique skill set. 

[oldno82]

I agree with most of what you say except that I think all the rookies should get a ton of reps regardless of whether or not they're key contributors. Under Harbaugh, as I said before, I don't think rookies and sophomores got a fair shake often enough when it came to game time or practice time.
