Chargers are going ALL IN to land the NFL’s Tyler Linderbaum in 2026 free agency! #nfl #nflfootball

The Chargers are going ALL IN to land the NFL’s elite center Tyler Linderbaum in 2026 free agency! With Bradley Bozeman retired, the interior O-line in shambles from injuries, and Justin Herbert deserving ELITE protection, LA is targeting the former 1st-round beast from the Ravens. Linderbaum dominated in 2025:Played all 17 games (started every one)
PFF Overall Grade: 80.2 (5th among 40 centers)
Run Blocking Grade: 83.7 (4th among centers) – a mauler in the run game!
1,007 offensive snaps, only 2 sacks allowed, 5 penalties
3x Pro Bowler entering free agency, still just 25 years old

Imagine this Iowa Hawkeye anchor snapping to Herbert, opening massive lanes for the run game, and giving #10 clean pockets to cook. GM Joe Hortiz (who knows Linderbaum from Baltimore) has the cap space to make him the highest-paid center in football – could we see $20M+ AAV?!Is this the blockbuster move that finally fixes the Bolts’ O-line and pushes them to Super Bowl contention? Chargers fans, let me know in the comments: Linderbaum to LA – happening or nah?

  1. Love parker Brailsford in the draft or even Hecht or Lew I think there's 3 good center prospects that I'd be willing to roll with as a day one starter in the 3rd round. Brailsford is my guy in a perfect world

  2. I hope they sign a center and draft loane. The Achilles heel is the o line it was the reason we lost games and in the playoffs. Yes we need improvement in other areas but I believe if the O line is fixed we could have a great shot at being in the super bowl

  3. Last year proves it wouldn't be a bad place to dump some money. Still, I'd rather get 3 good linemen than 1 superstar. If our tackles stay off IR, even 3 guys inside who were league-average would be enough.

  4. I say sign Linderbaum on a 5-year deal worth $20 million, with $5 million guaranteed for the first 2 years (that's only $2.5 million GUARANTEED for each year, if you're still confused) + bonus incentives for the remaining 3 years IF he can keep Herbert safe & HEALTHY throughout the playoffs! 🙏🤞 In that case scenario, we should consider drafting fellow former Hawkeyes Gennings Dunker (projected RG @ the next level who could also be a more-than-serviceable "swing" tackle 👍) & Logan Jones for some VERY solid center depth right behind his former teammate, Linderbaum!) 💪⚡ Just my .02 cents…🏈

  5. He’s going to step on that turf at Sofi and get a lower leg injury like our other sideline players. Alt and Harris both got injured on that crappy turf.

  6. I think, given Hortiz’s history with the Ravens and familiarity with Linderbaum, Linderbaum will be a Charger if Hortiz believes in him. I’m certain Hortiz was a part of the process that went into drafting him for the Ravens.

  7. Bro is your shirt sparkly or do you need to moisturize your scalp?
    P.S. if it's a chronic affliction I've never been aware of please don't be mad.
    My third uncle had a thing for sparkly clothing. He may have been a lil funny.
    He always made me laugh.

  8. If we don't get Linderbaum I would go straight to Brewer from the Fins. He had the best stats for centers last yr. Obviously he was with Mike and Buddy last yr too so that helps. We could get him for maybe $10-12 million a yr and save a lot there? Then go get the RG from the Bills, can't remember his name, but he's damn good. The if Zion leaves we could get Seamolo from Steelers for a yr draft a couple of OG'S

  9. It’s worth it, honestly I want us to sign him, resign Owen and give tuli his 4yr/100 that he deserves, painfully if let Mack sign elsewhere. Owen is still young and gives him time to mix with Tuli, passes rush for now and the future, maybe get a cb in FA and ideally I’d love another TE

  10. This is year that Joe Hortiz CAN'T BE A FUCKN TIGHTASS PER!! We're going to have close to $110 MILLION DOLLARS or so this yr! He's GOT to get it right THIS yr of all yrs or he's got to hit the road and move Alex into his spot. I've got about 20% Faith in Joe this yr after the last 2 yrs, sorry. I thought he was Great his 1st yr, then he Slipped BIG time last yr. With all of those STUPID 1 yr deals from the Bargain bin.Then he wasted 2 draft picks on guys who wouldn't even make PS guys on 31 other team!! That's why we've got 26 or so FA'S this yr, WAY TOO MANY!!N ow uf he would've signed Oweh the same kind of contract he gave Becton we wouldn't have to be worrying about having to re-sign him now!! AGRIVATING AS ALL HELL!! Because niw Joe's probably gonna let him walk!!
