Chargers posted near top in latest power rankings after first wave of free agency

The Chargers haven’t made a plethora of moves this offseason. But from the ones that they have made, the arrow is pointing up for coach Anthony Lynn’s team as we approach the 2019 NFL draft.

Following a great 12-4 regular season, which resulted in a trip to the AFC Divisional Round, Los Angeles is currently in a good position with their roster after a few moves that they’ve made. But it will only get better depending on how the team attacks the NFL draft next month.

Touchdown Wire is a firm believer that L.A. still stands among the cream of the crop, checking in at No. 4 in their latest power rankings.

The loss of wide receiver Tyrell Williams stings a bit but he wasn’t the offense’s top option. The addition of linebacker Thomas Davis is a nice pickup to help lead their young core on defense.

The Chargers re-signed a few of their players, brought in linebacker Thomas Davis and quarterback Tyrod Taylor, while only losing cornerback Jason Verrett and wide receiver Tyrell Williams to another team thus far.

Los Angeles’ holes lie at on the offensive and defensive line and the free safety position, but they will have an opportunity to build a solid foundation with their seven selections.
