The North County Times reports San Diego Chargers RB LaDainian Tomlinson is clearly back to full strength, and seems as agile as ever. That was proven during Tuesday's practice, when he used an unexpected lateral jump cut to freeze several defenders and skate into the end zone during an 11-on-11 drill.

If he makes it to the bottom half of the first round you damn near gotta bite.

• The North County Times reports San Diego Chargers RB/FB Jacob Hester, who was listed at 5-foot-11, 225 pounds in last season's Chargers media guide, has bulked up this offseason to better deal with the blocking responsibilities of his position after spending his final college season as primary rusher. Hester looks powerful, but he hasn't gotten too big for his own good. He's moving well, and the added size doesn't prevent him from being a productive pass catcher and occasional runner out of the backfield. He proved that during minicamp and the offseason coaching sessions, which concluded for veterans on Thursday. Hester is more of hybrid back than the prototypical fullback Chargers fans grew accustomed to when FB Lorenzo Neal lined up in front of RB LaDainian Tomlinson earlier this decade. And finding that delicate balance between rhino and antelope has been no easy task for Hester. "There was a time this offseason when I was trying to gain a bunch of muscle for playing fullback," Hester said last week. "But I got to a point where they stopped me and said, 'Don't forget that you still need to run the ball a little bit,' which meant they didn't want me to gain too much weight. There's a point where you can get too big and too stiff, and that's when you have to back off a little bit. It's a tough balance, trying to find that ideal weight where you can be versatile and effective, but I feel like we got it done." Hester's magic number is 240 pounds. Hester rather enjoyed reaching his ideal playing weight, which involved a strenuous workout regimen and a little gluttony.
