Predicting the Chargers First-Team Defense to begin training camp

The Charges veterans arrive at The Bolt tomorrow to begin training camp. Before that happens, we’re predicting the starters for the Chargers base defense which is a traditional 3-4 front under Jesse Minter. The Chargers aren’t going to live in this personnel, but it’s their base stuff and a good starting point for these predictions.

Let’s get into it.

Interior Defensive Line

  • 3-techniques: Otito Ogbonnia & Justin Eboigbe (Backups: Scott Matlock and Morgan Fox)
  • Nose Tackle: Poona Ford (Backup: Jerrod Clark)

Ford’s best tape comes when he’s able to get up and under opposing centers where he wins with his natural leverage.
