Ahead of NFL free agency, the Los Angeles Chargers enjoy nearly $90 million in free cap space.
Good thing, too, because after they get some re-signings of their own done with the likes of Odafe Oweh, Jim Harbaugh’s club has a plethora of issues to address with outside additions.
One of the most problematic areas for the Chargers right now? The offensive line in front of Justin Herbert.
Luckily for the Chargers, free agency appears to offer some sneaky-good solutions.

Chargers perfect fit for Bills free agent?
There are some big-name interior offensive linemen headed to free agency this year. Think Isaac Seumalo. Heck, even Zion Johnson, the first-round pick by the Chargers a few years ago.
ESPN’s Matt Bowen, though, suggested the Chargers are the best fit in the NFL for Buffalo Bills free agent David Edwards:
“If Zion Johnson leaves L.A., then Edwards could replace him. Edwards has played his best football as a pro over his past two seasons. He has excellent movement traits at 6-foot-6 and 308 pounds, and his 95% pass block win rate in 2025 ranked 12th among 65 qualifying guards. That’s a positive for a Chargers team that allowed 60 sacks, tied for the second most in the league.”
That 95 percent metric is staggering for a Chargers team that just hasn’t been able to do right by Justin Herbert. Edwards wound up ranked 19th out of 81 guards in the NFL at PFF last year.
