Jim Trotter, of the San Diego Union-Tribune, reports San Diego Chargers team negotiator Ed McGuire has informed QB Eli Manning (Mississippi) that he will be in contact with his representatives Wednesday, April 21, to begin discussions on contract parameters. The Chargers, because they have the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft, are allowed to negotiate with players. Barring a trade, they are expected to select Manning. Team GM A.J. Smith said he'd prefer to have a deal done before the draft begins, but didn't say whether or not it would have an influence on which player the team selects.
