The NFL free agency frenzy has quieted down over a week removed from the New League Year starting.
While there will certainly be more moves coming, most of the big names are off the board.
With the first free agency wave in the rearview mirror, Pro Football Focus’ Mason Cameron examined each team’s best move of the offseason so far.
His favorite move for the Chargers was one made before free agency even kicked off in bringing back future Hall of Famer Khalil Mack.
Cameron wrote:
Mack will be 34 years old during the 2025 season but is clearly still worth his price tag. He earned an elite 90.2 PFF overall grade in 2024, the seventh 90.0-plus mark of his career. Although retaining him meant the departure of Joey Bosa, the Chargers invested in the far more productive player.
Mack has racked up 31.0 sacks in three seasons with the Bolts, the ninth-most in the league during that span. He’s also recorded 49 quarterback hits, 39 tackles for loss, 21 passes defensed, nine forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.
And in 2024 he put together a PFF defense grade of 90.4, the fourth-best among players at his position. He finished second on the Bolts with 6.0 sacks and led the team in quarterback pressures with 54, according to Next Gen Stats.
