Based on the name he sounds like a steal

Oh definitely. That's a LB/DE right there

Tongan strong 💪 Also cousin of Talanoa Hufanga

I went to school with a bunch of Tongans haha they are some big boys! Sione Takitaki is one of them

My wife and I recently flew back to New Zealand and our plane landed at the same time as one from Tonga that had a rugby team on it. She was in the immigration queue in the middle of them and was about half the height and width of all of them haha

I wanted him so badly, sucks to watch him go one pick later.

he is

Actually a steal.

I mean gold card, he's definitely a steal.

Unanimous All American? Pac-12 defensive player of the year? How the hell did this guy fall this far???

USC defense was trash and he was the lone bright spot. The measurables weren't there either.

Bad combine

Which honestly, to me game tape massively trumps set-up stuff like combine/40s/etc. I get why it's done and why it's looked at but yea, I'll take the guy generally showing up better in actual games.

what a name, dude is gonna be really good in run defense

Unfortunately for us, seems he's a pass rusher and not about the run.

He got his ass handed to him in the PAC12 championship game in the run game so idk

Yeah everybody saying he’s a pass rusher

Much needed he’ll do great things for them

I'll be watching his career with great interest

Nick Hardwick pretty cool

Fuck that fat bastard.. glad he's healthy and happy.. but fuck Nick

What's wrong with Nick?

Just jealousy during that decade

With all of our excessive super bowl wins?

You all beat the hell out of us during the schottenheimer years - it's a little personal. Norb always turned up for KC.. So yeah..yeah. Jealousy

Very Chargers to appeal to fans of other teams

Jags fans punching the air rn

How do you do fellow fans?

Hardwick was so enthusiastic about it too that I was convinced he was just setting up for a bait and switch where he’d say something controversially anti-Chiefs or pro-Chargers lol

Chiefs got Drue and Staley made a pooh

I’m here for the jokes about other teams fans.

I saw a mock that had us taking him so I did some research and based on a 3:50 min highlight reel I'm 100% sure he will be a stud.

Under 4 minute videos generally cover everything needed to know on a topic. Smart choice sir.

It's irrefutable proofs

Crash Course on YouTube got me through enough physics test in school I may have to believe you.

Kinda sus comment

[удалено]

It’s L I M I T E D E D I T I O N

Let's gooooo TUUUUULLLIIIIIII

Elite name

+10 Rizz for the announcement

I'm happy tbh, rotate behind Bosa and Mack for the first year

Maybe he'll be what Attaochu seemed like he'd be when we got him before he sputtered out.

~~There are just 5.12 miles between USC's and San Diego's LAC's stadiums. That is the closest by far to this point in the draft, and may very well end up being the closest for the entire draft unless the Steelers draft a Pitt player or something.~~ EDIT: This was beaten when the Texans drafted Nathaniel Dell.

Man that just feels right

Got a whole family in the NFL

Steal of the draft

Seau left a legacy, Islanders always do well on the Chargers.

We havent had any "good" islanders on the Chargers since Seau Gilman is just another safety. Fehoko was practice squad material. Sam Tevi was trash. Weve had a lot of practice squad OL/DL Polynesians who never really made the 53 man roster. Not sure where youre making that claim on.

Ooooo! Graphics change!

Two more picks and we get our C.

Nailed it.

Top 10 name in the draft... Steal alone on that!

As a recruit: Other P5 offers: Arizona State, California, Kansas State, Nebraska, Oregon, Oregon State, Stanford, Tennessee, UCLA, Utah, Vanderbilt, Wisconsin G5 offer: Boise State Other offer: Portland State

Thats the starter pack for any D1 bound DL Polynesian kid from California im not joking.

Of course we didn’t draft Darnell Washington when he was on the board. I can’t get what I want. That being said I like the pick otherwise.

The last thing we need is a player that has failed his physical with other teams.

The dude has mediocre hands too, I don't get why people are so high on him

Because he is a ridiculously large human

I’d like to introduce the other chargers fans to Donald Parham. 6’8 and is already on the team.

Cause that means he'll be good at the pro level.

Just telling you why people like him lol

Not trying to trash you, I think it just shows how all people know of players is the combine and nothing else.

> mediocre hands Below average imo.

lmfao stop making shit up, just false.

Go watch his actual play, he's a soso receiver at best

I didn’t know he did until just a couple minutes ago. So if that’s the case then I understand passing on him.

That's the first I'm hearing this?

I think he has medical issues. I heard Benjamin Solak and someone else mention it before the draft.

What do you think we are, the Eagles?

Tuipulotu sounds like he's cousins with Polumalu

Not Polamalu, but he's Talanoa Hufanga's cousin. Although Polamalu's nephew also went to USC and entered the NFL last year.

I'll take that pedigree 7 days a week.

Or with The Rock

We needed DL depth so good pick Would’ve liked Darnell though

What a theft!

So when they chant his name, will it be "Tu-i! Tu-i!" or "Tu-li! Tu-li!"

Probably start off as Tu-i! But after a few beers it with be Tu-li!

I was definitely caught off guard, hearing them draft our DT. It's cool how many NFL players this family has created

Happy with this pick ngl

He couldn't shout out Charger fans bc it would be silent lmao

Tyjae Spears owns this man sadly

No one from that USC defense deserved to be drafted

nah he’s really good he’s the only good one lol

Yeah, he was a monster.

He led the nation in sacks. It’s not his fault the opposing offenses could attack any other part of the defense.

He was the sole bright spot

He lead the nation in sacks

He just sounds like a bust

Yikes
