Will the Chargers regret passing on deep-threat wideout, edge rusher?

Two of the most-underrated needs for the Chargers heading into the 2022 NFL draft was their lack of big-time speed at the wide receiver position and a solid third-wheel to rush the passer along with Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack.

Despite these needs, the Chargers passed on both in the draft entirely and settled for picking up a player at each position among their 14 undrafted free agents. However, the receiver they signed — Travon Bradford from Oregon State — is a 4.54 guy and the pass rusher Ty Shelby is, again, an undrafted player.
