#Chargers re-signed RB Branden Oliver.

The former University of Buffalo product has struggled in the stat column recently due to injury and, in my opinion, not being properly utilized by the offensive decision-makers.

After the loss of fan-favorite Danny Woodhead, the Chargers, perhaps, were in a position to strongly consider adding a ball carrier in the draft. With the re-signing of Oliver, the team’s leading rusher from only two season ago, the Chargers’ offense has retained a viable option in both the running and passing games — it is worth noting that despite his short stature, Oliver is more than adequate as a pass-blocker out of the backfield, something he worked on with the coaching staff and Woodhead a lot during their time in San Diego.

I can speak with the utmost confidence on behalf of the entire BoltBlitz.com staff that we are beyond happy for this young man.

My only issue is that he was re-signed by a team that no longer plays its home games in San Diego… but that’s a story for another day.

Thanks a lot for reading.
