The Chargers' Needs

In the National Football League the off-season is still going strong, but is slowly starting to wind down towards the NFL draft which is on the 30th of this month. Each team is frantically trying to negotiate for players to fill the open spots or weak spots they have from the end of the most recent season. This team that I will obviously focus on is the San Diego Chargers who seem to have quite a bit going on this off-season with the possible chance of having their home stadium moved out of the city, losing their star running back Ryan Mathews to the Philadelphia Eagles and now potentially losing their long-time starting quarterback Philip Rivers. What I think this team needs to focus on is filling in positions that are not as strong as they should be and the stadium rumors should not be bother because for sure this year they will be playing in San Diego and the chances of them making a new stadium isn't going to happen for awhile because two other teams want to move into the Los Angeles area too, so there won't be any deals made for awhile. Another rumor is the chance of their longtime quarter back being traded for a second round pick to get a rookie quarterback. I believe the Chargers should keep their starting quarterback because he is a decent quarterback the only argument that I can think of is his age which is 33, but there are many that are in their late 30s and are still going strong. What they should invest their first round pick on is a running back such as Melvin Gordon or Tod Gurley who are ranked very high as a draft prospect. Last year the Chargers linemen also struggled with injuries and this off-season they brought in some big names like Orlando Franklin and King Dunlap so, that was something a lot of Chargers fans can cheer about. I believe that if the Chargers bring in a decent running back, the next season should be a good one for them.
