Chargers Plan Significant Moves Ahead of NFL Draft

The Los Angeles Chargers are facing questions about their roster depth, particularly at cornerback and wide receiver, following several offseason moves. After not re-signing Asante Samuel Jr., analysts suggest the Dallas Cowboys could benefit from adding him to address their own injury concerns at cornerback, especially with uncertainty surrounding Trevon Diggs. Meanwhile, the Chargers have bolstered their offense in the draft, selecting multiple wide receivers and bringing back Mike Williams, which has led to speculation that former first-round pick Quentin Johnston could be traded—potentially to receiver-needy teams like the Cowboys. While Johnston has shown flashes of potential, his inconsistency and the influx of new talent have made him a possible trade candidate, though some argue the Chargers should take a wait-and-see approach. These developments highlight the Chargers' attempts to balance immediate roster needs with long-term planning, as they seek to build on last season's playoff appearance.
