My “Surprise” team for this year

Justin Herbert fantasy owners might be in for a down year, but they are going to play defense, run the ball, and will be a totally different team under Harbaugh. I expect him to win quickly

Why would it suck if the Chargers do well? I like their QB and kinda felt bad for that franchise playing second fiddle to the Rams and just about any team playing them in SoFi.

My guess is somehow because we 'missed out' on Harbaugh. The fact is the Chargers underperformed last year, they have talent and should be a decent team this season. Really won't be surprised.

Don't get the Charger hate though. 

I wonder if Mack or Bosa is available for trade for a reasonable pick where we just pay their base salary and they eat the dead cap.

They are going to be an interesting team when it comes to the draft. I see a lot of mocks have them taking Brock Bowers, but I could see them trading down or taking the first defender off the board. Bosa is a 36 million cap hit for them this season if they don't use the out in his contract. Khalil Mack would be a 38 million dollar cap hit if he doesn't restructure. EDGE would make sense

Is there an edge that high  in the draft though?  Id bet a weeks wages that Harbaugh takes a OT unless Harrison somehow falls into their laps. 

Ekeler’s a FA and possibly (?) washed, and they had less than nothing behind him at RB. Keenan is getting up there and Mike Williams has never been able to stay on the field. Their first round pick WR from last year did next to nothing as a rookie and they’re TEs aren’t special. 

Even with a presumed improvement in coaching, I think they’re a year away. Wild card team this year, maybe, IMO. 

Chargers are a consistent underperforming team, amazing every year they just give games away.  I don't think Harbaugh is a good fit for them or Herbert and think they take a step back this year.
