The Chargers had $100 million to spend in free agency and still have $48 million left — so what's the plan? Matt "Money" Smith and Lorenzo Neal break it all down on this week's Bleav in Chargers. They cover every key Chargers free agency move including the Tyler Biadasz signing at center, Charlie Kolar at tight end, Alec Ingold at fullback, and Khalil Mack's return, why fans frustrated about the guard position need to trust the process, what the Chargers are actually signaling with their spending priorities, and why edge rusher — not guard — should be the pick at 22 in the draft. They also tease a massive special guest coming Monday. Subscribe to Bleav in Chargers on Apple Podcasts.

On this episode of Bleav in Chargers, Matt “Money” Smith goes live for a Q&A and dives into where the Chargers really stand after free agency.

Money sees a clear direction: build through the draft, trust the process, and prioritize the offensive line but not in the way fans might expect. The upgrade at center with Tyler Biadasz is massive, but guard is still a question, and it feels like the team is willing to wait and address it later rather than overspend now.

Plus, Money hits on draft strategy, trade-back scenarios, and why this roster might not be finished yet.
