Los Angeles Chargers 2017-18 season's predictions

After another badly bad season the former San Diego Chargers now Los Angeles Chargers have had the seventh call to the draft for each turn. Just at the seventh absolute call came the kind of broad receiver that Philip Rivers likes most, the tall and physical receiver and came to the name of Mike Williams from the University of Clemson where DeShaun Watson has seen great things, especially in the end zone Where Chargers from Malcolm Floyd's retirement Malcolm injury have had heavy gaps. Williams's only doubt over the mesh number as his 7 is not allowed on wide-receiver in the NFL will be whether or not he will be able to create separation given his modest speed. In the second and third round, in my opinion, the Chargers have made the strike first catching the Forrest Lamp guard from the University of Western Kentucky and then the other guard with the ability to adapt to Dan Feeney's tackle from the Indiana University. The Chargers line was bad in Rivers' protection and in granting reason holding penalties for which Franklin, Dunlap and Fluker were cut off in this offseason making this line younger and more talented. In the other four calls to the draft they opted for two safeties (Jenkins and King) to give more depth to the depth chart especially in the case of training to counter the steps where a wider use of defensive backs is required. Sixth round was chosen by Sam Tevi, offensive tackle from Utah while on the seventh round instead of defensive tackle by Notre Dame Isaac Rochelle.
In addition to having a great draft on paper Chargers have signed left tackle former Seahawks and Broncos Russell Okung who will give a great hand with his experience and weakness on the weak side. By counting the good team they had last year with these new grafts Chargers (allowing injuries) are to be counted among the Superbowl candidate teams, there are only a few doubts as the major change in coaching stuff with the exemption of Coach Mike McCoy and defensive coordinator John Pagano and the arrival of Anthony Lynn and Gus Bradley, who bring completely different philosophies. In fact, Lynn being a former run-back coach, unlike McCoy who preferred a more attacking attack, he probably set up a first-off run exploiting the emerging half-back Melvin Gordon and a potentially strong line. The defense will most likely change from 3-4 to 4-3 since Bradley has always used that kind of defense since the Seattle times, the unknowns are in the role that Ingram and Bosa will have, which will probably be used at the top of the defensive line Like pass rushers.
That Chargers have the potential to do very well is obvious the problem in my opinion will be to see if the coaching stuff will be up to what last season was not and also understand if key players such as Keenan Allen and Jason Verrett will be able to stand Healthy to provide the necessary contribution to making the leap in quality by closing the games in the fourth quarter.
