Ladd McConkey (WR - LAC)
1/20/25 8:00 PM -
Chargers crowned top fit for one of NFL Draft's best tight ends. Now that the Los Angeles Chargers' season is over, it's time for them to head back to the drawing board and prepare for 2025. Unfortunately for the Chargers, their biggest flaw was evident in the Wild Card, which was a lack of offensive playmakers. Ladd McConkey did his thing, catching nine passes for 197 yards and one touchdown, a perfect stamp to an incredible rookie season. Outside of him, the Chargers had nobody step up to help.

New York won five games and is looking to make major organizational changes this offseason including the head coach and general manager positions. New York will look very different in 2025 and the next general manager's job is going to be figuring out a way to manage minimal cap space, a multitude of roster question marks, and get back to the playoffs in 2025. One player who has a big question mark over his head right now is six-time Pro Bowler Davante Adams.

J.K. Dobbins free agency market value: Should Chargers re-sign RB?. The Los Angeles Chargers have some heavyweight names heading to free agency this offseason, with running back J.K. Dobbins near the top of the list. Dobbins enjoyed a strong season on his one-year, prove-it deal, but also battled injuries that forced him into that type of contract in the first place. Dobbins has a market value of $7.3 million average annual salary, per Spotrac. Projections on running backs are tricky, though, and this value could end up dramatically overshooting what he gets based on injury history.

How Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud 'grew tremendously' even in one of those 'tough years'. In many ways, the Texans' last football game was a microcosm of their entire season in terms of how they lost in the AFC divisional round for the second year in a row and how quarterback C.J. Stroud endured issues around him with a resilient attitude and game performances. Stroud was once again under heavy duress and dealing with the absence of key pieces to a once-vibrant offense. Sacked eight times and hit 14 times overall while matching wits with one of the craftiest strategic defensive coordinators in the game against Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, Stroud was dealing with an intricate and well-timed pressure package that brought the heat from everywhere.

The Chiefs have consistently picked near the end of the draft order annually, yet keep plugging and playing high-end starters. Since the 2022 draft, Trent McDuffie has blossomed into a lockdown corner and George Karlaftis an elite pass-rusher. Xavier Worthy caught six touchdowns this year as a rookie, and other high-end picks have seen a steady uptick in playing time.
