The Chargers will be looking to round out the edge defender room in the upcoming draft, and they could address the position as early as the first round.
Should they go that route, Fox Sports' Rob Rang believes they are the best fit for Marshall's Mike Green.
Here is what Rang wrote:
Khalil Mack remains one of the NFL's best and 2023 first-round pick Tuli Tuipulotu made impressive strides a year ago, but the latter is the only edge rusher on the Chargers' roster signed past next season. Green plays with the physicality and fire Harbaugh wants from his players, leading the country with 17 sacks and ranking second with 22.5 tackles for loss.
After transferring from Virginia, Green led the nation in sacks in 2024 (17). That type of pass rush production is what the Bolts need off the edge, as they finished 26th in pressure percentage (19.8) in 2024.
At 6-foot-4 and 251 pounds, Green gets into the backfield consistently in a variety of ways, causing fits for opposing offensive tackles with speed, bend, and an arsenal of counters (arm-over, cross-chop, long arm, spin).
Green would be a solid selection by the Chargers. Another edge defender worth considering in the first round is Boston College's Donovan Ezeiruaku.
