San Diego Chargers 5 Biggest Draft Needs - Kyle Posey
Some may disagree, but let me explain why. The Chargers need to draft a guy whom they feel best fits THEIR scheme, and they can develop them into the type of player they want to become.

Starting on the other side, Shareece Wright, has came on as of late, but 10 bad games>2 good games. This is a coaching and a talent issue, players aren't looking back for the ball, aren't aggressive, have poor technique, and basically everything a corner is supposed to do, this team doesn't do it. I believe Wright can be an excellent slot corner, but that leaves 2 other positions to fill.

Chargers' receivers take blocking seriously - Eric Williams
"I'll tell the receivers all the time, do you want Ryan Mathews not to pick up the blitzing linebacker when he comes so then you can't catch a pass?" McCoy said. "It's a matter of being unselfish and that's what we tell the receivers here. If you want to catch some passes, you better block for the backs also."
