Two days from Draft Day, Charger fans! It can't come sooner enough, and we'll all find out what the Bolts will do with their seven picks this weekend. 

There are a ton of ways to go, and Chargers GM Tom Telesco is preparing for the many prospects he could choose from. With the draft approaching, there are many experts giving their opinion on who or what the Chargers should do with their pick. Some say they need an offensive player, and some say a defensive player, but Chargers senior writer Eric Smith believes there isn't one position of need for the Bolts. 

They don't have one. This isn't like 2020 when the team needed a quarterback, or when there were obvious holes along the offensive line in the past two seasons. As it stands now, the Chargers could line up today and play without needing a starter anywhere. This is a great spot to be in, as the Bolts could possibly draft the highest player on their board at No. 21. But, with all that said, positions to watch could be tight end, wide receiver, edge rusher and cornerback.

The Chargers could use another pass catcher, whether that's a wide receiver or a tight end, or they could use a running back if they lose Austin Ekeler. And, as Smith said, the defense has been subpar. J.C. Jackson could be back, but how is he going to look? Joey Bosa is an incredible pass rusher, but who else do they have that could impact the game? 

LA has a lot on their plate, and they'll need to use those seven picks wisely to bolster their roster.  If they can land on most of their selections, this team will be scary next season.
