The Chargers still need to improve the team at the NFL trade deadline.
picked up a huge win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 9 and along the way, got some key performances at positions it seemed the team might address at the trade deadline.
But the Chargers probably shouldn’t fool themselves into letting a game against the Browns steer them away from the plan. Look at the edge. The Chargers got after Jameis Winston all day. Khalil Mack and others had a large number of pressures and six sacks, forcing three interceptions. But…we’re talking about Winston, known for his erratic play. The fact remains the Chargers could still use some quality pass-rushing depth with Joey Bosa on a pitch count and even Mack came up limping at one point. One could apply the same logic to cornerback depth after, yes, but his big touchdown came on a busted coverage against…the Browns.
Point is, the Chargers shouldn’t let a one-off game against the Browns overly influence their approach to the trade deadline. Small, measured buys that can help the team improve depth ahead of a playoff push should still be the priority before Tuesday’s deadline.
