Is Tom Telesco going to go all out in free agency?

The Chargers enter this offseason with with a projected $56.245 million in salary-cap space, according to OverTheCap.com, marking the most salary cap-space since general manager Tom Telesco took over in 2013.

Telesco has never been notorious for splurging in free agency, but that’s primarily because he hasn’t had the ammo to do so. With this being the year with the most money the front office has had to spend, could he use this as the outlet to bring in top-tier talent?

Some of that money will be spent on some of their notable in-house players – Hunter Henry, Adrian Phillips, Michael Schofield – but with some releases and reconstructing, they could clear up some salary cap-space to put them in an even more optimal position.

The Chargers need to find difference-makers along the offensive line, and Telesco has hit on players like Russell Okung and Mike Pouncey. The team could benefit from signing soon-to-be free agents like Jack Conklin, Brandon Scherff or Joe Thuney.
