Key Additions: Donald Brown
Key Departures: Derek Cox
Grade: C
The San Diego Chargers have had the quietest offseason of all the AFC West teams to date. The biggest move they have made is adding veteran running back Donald Brown to replace Ronnie Brown. Their biggest loss to date was veteran cornerback Derek Cox, when he signed with Minnesota.
Neither of these two moves will vault the team into the upper echelon of teams in the AFC. The Chargers had a chance to carry the momentum of being a playoff team last season and go grab a couple of impact players, however they have failed at that aspect thus far. The Chargers will now have to rely on finding a few impact players in the draft.
