Ladd McConkey is the leader in the slot, and Tre Harris is someone to watch as a second-year pro, but there are a lot of questions outside of that. Quentin Johnston is due for a decision on his fifth-year option, which means the Chargers could move on from him. If they do, they could replace him with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/news\/tyreek-hill-landing-spots-best-fits-dolphins-release\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Miami Dolphins castoff Tyreek Hill.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">\u201cHill to the Chargers makes sense on several levels. Financially, Los Angeles can afford it, entering the offseason with $78.6 million in effective cap space. That\u2019s second-most in the NFL, per Over the Cap,\u201c CBS Sports contributor Garett Podell wrote.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">\u201cQuarterback Justin Herbert arm strength is another draw. His 24,820 passing yards rank second-most through a player\u2019s first six seasons, trailing only Hall of Famer Peyton Manning (24,885).<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">If anyone knows how to utilize Hill, it\u2019s former Miami Dolphins head coach and now Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">McDaniel could center the offense around Hill to give Justin Herbert a deep threat to work with moving forward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">While Hill is still recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered early in the 2025 season, if he is 75% of who he used to be, it will still be the best deep threat option Herbert has had in his career with the Chargers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">BFTB community, what do you think of the prospect of the Chargers signing Hill?
