Chargers Offseason Summary Following the first wave of 2026 free agency, the Los Angeles Chargers' primary draft needs are Interior Offensive Line, Defensive Tackle, and Safety. General Manager Joe Hortiz filled a massive void at center by signing Tyler Biadasz and reinforced the defense with veterans like Dalvin Tomlinson, but the team still lacks long-term starters at guard and defensive interior depth.

LAC Mock Draft Picks

Colton Hood


The Chargers’ March has made it obvious that roster maintenance is not limited to one side of the ball. Los Angeles added Tyler Biadasz and Trevor Penning up front, brought Trey Lance back into the quarterback room, and has continued sorting through broader depth needs, which leaves room for another perimeter coverage addition. Hood fits as a long, competitive boundary corner who can challenge vertically and develop into real outside depth.

Germie Bernard


Drive sustainability remains a quiet offensive priority for Los Angeles as it reshapes its skill group. Bernard’s route efficiency and toughness provide a reliable underneath option capable of supporting offensive balance. He profiles as a volume-target developmental receiver.
Billy Schrauth


Physical trench play remains a cornerstone of offensive balance. Schrauth’s strength and demeanor introduce developmental guard reinforcement aligned with run-game continuity. He profiles as a long-term interior investment.
