24. San Diego Chargers (27)

While the San Diego Chargers are obviously pleased to have finally reached an agreement with Joey Bosa, the team has to be frustrated over the fact that he won’t be in tip-top shape after missing crucial practices and preseason games.

Bosa needed all of the experience he could get in training camp and the challenge now becomes making sure the former Ohio State star doesn’t look rusty now that the regular season is getting underway. Despite last year’s disappointing finish, San Diego was a team that could have easily won more games if it wasn’t for so many injuries on offense and defense.

With key players returning to full strength, expect Philip Rivers and the Chargers to bounce back and make a run in the division. Whether Bosa ends up being one of the factors to help this team bounce back after his long holdout, only time will tell for that story.
