It's April 22nd. This is California News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. The charges made a smart move, grabbing center, Tyler buy it as on a three-year deal worth $30 million. That's a steal compared to what the Raiders showed out, 81 million for Tyler Linderbaum, who many thought might land in LA. They still need help at wire receiver after a rough 2025 season. Right now, Justin Herbert's got landmaconky, Quentin Johnston, Trey Harris, and Keandre Lambert Smith returning. Solid group, but not elite firepower. Fans and analysts hope for a splash like AJ. Brown, but that's off the table with reports of him heading from Philly to New England around June 1st. The Bolt's receiving corps could use that star power to boost their offense. Bleacher reports Mo Moten's spotlight at 10 players who might get cut or traded post draft, including some from Pittsburgh. DK Metcalf stands out as a prime target, same age as Brown, 3000 yard seasons under his belt, though his last year dipped.

Those cap hits are steep 31 million in 2026, up to 41.5 million by 2029. But GM Joe Hortes could. Rework it with future picks. Landing Metcalf with Supercharge Herbert, and keep the charges in contention.
