Fire Dennis Allen!!

Um…Eli was drafted by San Diego and then traded to the Giants after they drafted Rivers.

Rough looking back at that draft if you’re a Chargers fan. They had one future Super Bowl winning quarterback on the roster, and drafted another, but then traded that one for a quarterback that never won sheet, when another future Super Bowl winning quarterback (Roethlisberger) was still in the board.
While you're technically correct, the Chargers traded him to the Giants later the same day. Eli had already told the Chargers not to draft him, so they ignored him and drafted/traded him.

And yeah, the Chargers history with QBs is quite something else. Lol.

I don't think people realize how outside the norm that is. Arch may be the top pick, he also may be a lower round pick. We won't know for sure until he proves it on the field. If he's not a first rounder, he's not really gonna have any leverage in determining where he gets to go until his rookie contract is done.
