The trade between the Los Angeles Chargers and New England Patriots is increasingly looking favorable for the Chargers. General Manager Joe Hortiz's decision to move up in the draft to select Ladd McConkey has yielded impressive results, with McConkey leading the team in receiving yards before an injury.

Additionally, cornerback Tarheeb Still emerged as a standout player, showcasing his skills by intercepting two passes in a recent game. In contrast, the Patriots have seen minimal contributions from their draft picks acquired in the trade, raising questions about the effectiveness of their choices.
