The Chargers are hoping to find the right pieces to turn things around after an unexpected down season in the upcoming draft.
However, the draft rarely goes according to plan. Trades will occur and surprising selections will be made, leaving fans with their mock drafts they made in shambles.
With that, let’s take a look at three bold scenarios that might happen that supporters of the Bolts might not expect to happen:
Offensive line is not addressed, at all
The offensive line sits atop of the positional needs list, even after the acquisitions of tackle Bryan Bulaga and guard Trai Turner.
Can Trey Pipkins be trusted with the starting role at left tackle? Has Dan Feeney really proven his worth at left guard? Will Forrest Lamp stay healthy? Will Mike Pouncey play another snap of football?
These are commonly asked questions, which leads to many assuming that the positional groups will be addressed in a couple of weeks.
However, is there a possibility that the team could be relying on new offensive line coach James Campen to revitalize the unit with the pieces they currently have on the roster?
During his time with the Packers, Campen turned a slew of mid-late round projects into Pro Bowl and All-Pro selections. This could lead to the possibility of them banking on his coaching to develop Pipkins, Feeney, Lamp, Scott Quessenberry and Trent Scott.
It seems far fetched, especially when the tackle class is the deepest that it’s been in years. But Campen could really see potential with the guys that they have, and elect to not bring in any more.
