Kolar's $24M deal and receiving background suggest production gains over Baltimore tenure.

Kolar (DraftKings ADP 222.2, Underdog ADP 209.1) was signed by the Chargers to a three-year, $24M deal in March, signaling offensive priority in their new system. The source questions whether Kolar was a blocking specialist in Baltimore because that's all he's capable of or because the Ravens preferred him blocking while Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely ran routes. In college at Iowa State, Kolar was a receiving tight end with three seasons of 40+ receptions. The source expects this season's production to eclipse his four-year Baltimore total (30/409/4) and argues that last-round tight ends are preferable to late-round receivers and running backs because they're guaranteed field time; Kolar should get 35+ snaps per game, avoiding the zero-point risk of players who never see the field.
