The San Diego Chargers have a big offseason ahead of them, as they must put their team back on track to compete for a playoff spot. They lack talent and depth on both sides of the ball, and will need to make better decisions in free agency and the draft. Here are five bold predictions for the team.
5. They Won’t Sign a Top Offensive Tackle

There are several very good offensive tackles available in free agency, but the Chargers won’t break the bank to sign one. They spent a lot of money last year on their offensive line, and will instead choose to address the issue through the draft.
4. They Will Draft A Developmental Quarterback

There are several interesting options at quarterback that should be available later in the draft, and the Chargers could try to find someone to groom behind Philip Rivers. They would have several years to develop and could learn from the veteran.
3. Team Will Make Splash At Free Safety

Whether it is with their first pick or targeting one in free agency, the team will want to make a splash at free safety. They are most likely going to lose Eric Weddle, and the organization will want to make a bold move to replace him.
2. Keenan Allen Will Get An Extension

Allen has been a very good possession receiver for the Chargers, and he should get a new deal soon. He has had several injuries in the past so the organization may be able to keep him at a discount.
1. Team Will Draft At Least Three Linemen

The Chargers were awful at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. They need to rebuild their talent and will spend at least three draft picks on offensive or defensive linemen.
