Los Angeles Chargers general manager Tom Telesco rolled the dice on a few projects in the early rounds of the 2021 NFL draft.

Specifically, the Chargers found a replacement for Hunter Henry in Round three and even added a potential starter at inside linebacker in the sixth.
The first round of the NFL Draft featured a plethora of surprises, with these five value picks highlighting the bunch.
As free agency and the draft approach, every team has some level of excitement. Some teams are looking to contend in 2021. Others only want to move in the right direction. However, the NFL is unique in that every team has a chance to win the Super Bowl each season. Let’s conclude our look into the AFC by taking a look at the AFC West.
