Chargers plan to use Woodhead

CBSSports.com Fantasy — New Chargers coach Mike McCoy said Tuesday at the NFL owners meeting in Phoenix that he envisions Danny Woodhead playing on all three downs this year. The Chargers just signed Woodhead as a free agent from New England to a two-year deal. "He can play on all downs for us," McCoy said. "We’re looking to acquire as much talent as we can. Having worked with Josh McDaniels before in Denver and knowing the system they run, we’ll do some things that are similar. The things he can do in the running game and the passing game on third downs, create some mismatches on guys and use his speed and quickness...

McCoy still counting on Mathews

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Chargers coach Mike McCoy said in an interview with CBSSports.com on Tuesday at the NFL owners meeting in Phoenix that he's still counting on running back Ryan Mathews this season to play a prominent role even with the addition of Danny Woodhead. "Ryan’s had some bad luck with collarbones," McCoy said. "That’s all part of the game. You can’t do anything about that. I don’t know how you strengthen your collarbones. He’s had some bad luck the past couple of years. He’s going to be a great fit for this system. Give him the ball as many times as he can carry it in a game. And get him more involved...

  • San Diego Chargers re-sign RB Ronnie Brown to one-year deal
    After signing Danny Woodhead this morning, the San Diego Chargers remained focused on the running back position as they agreed to terms on a one-year deal with veteran Ronnie Brown. A nine-year pro, Brown spent 2012 as the primary third down back for the Chargers offense. With Woodhead on board, it seems unlikely that Brown will remain the team's primary anything. Brown's age, position on the depth chart and the fact that he signed on for only one season all point to this as a security signing against training camp injuries. Brown was less than effective when facing base defenses in 20...
  • San Diego Chargers Sign RB Danny Woodhead to Two-Year Contract
    Finally, a big name lands in San Diego with the Chargers. Free-agent RB Danny Woodhead agrees to 2-year deal with the Chargers, per source. — Mike Reiss (@MikeReiss) March 15, 2013 I love this signing. Danny Woodhead was similar to Darren Sproles in that the New England Patriots could plug him anywhere into the offense and he would find ways to be effective. He's a solid runner, pass-catcher and pass-blocker. Pro Football Focus ranked Woodhead as the 10th best running back in the league in 2012, so you could say that this is the type of "impact signing" that the Chargers' fans have...
