No one can deny the immediate positive effects that Jim Harbaugh had upon his arrival on the Los Angeles Chargers sidelines. The Bolts made the NFL Playoffs after a forgettable 2023 campaign. Unfortunately, it also can't be denied that Harbaugh and Justin Herbert didn't continue the good vibes train into the postseason. Despite being favored going on the road to face the Houston Texans, the Chargers laid a complete egg in the Wild Card Round on Saturday. Herbert threw four interceptions in a baffling effort from the star quarterback while the defense, albeit not being helped in the field position battle by the turnovers, couldn't find enough answers in the eventual 32-12 loss. The good news is that this was the Chargers after one offseason with Harbaugh and new general manager Joe Hortiz. With more work, specifically in the 2025 NFL Draft, LA can improve their chances even more so as they eye next year's playoffs — specifically if the three rounds we're about to see in this NFL mock draft projection were to go like this.
