The AFC West has held the "toughest division in the conference" title for the last few years and it doesn't appear to be switching hands very soon.Kansas City is coming off another Super Bowl-championship season and boasts one of the better rosters in the NFL. Meanwhile, the rest of the division is making significant moves to try to catch them. The Chargers added a new offensive coordinator, Denver has ushered in head coach Sean Payton, and the Raiders now have a new quarterback in Jimmy Garoppolo. Each of these moves should make the Chiefs' pursuit for a back-to-back title march that much more difficult and only adds to the reputation of being the most competitive division in the league.While we still have the NFL Draft on deck, we'll take a quick snapshot of where each of Erik Gonzalez Jersey  these teams stands at this point in the offseason with the first waves of free agency now washed ashore. Along with the recap, we'll also be handing out our grades.Additions: OT ( ), LB ( ), IDL ( ), EDGE ( )  Re-signings: IDL , TE , TE , P , IDL, , RT , QB , LG , WR Departures: (released), LT Jr. ( ), WR ( ), RT ( ), RB II ( ), FB ( ), WR ( ), S ( ), IDL ( )Kansas City decided against retaining left tackle Orando Brown Jr. and instead opted to bring aboard former Jaguars tackle Jawaan Taylor. That's quite the gamble to take if you're the Chiefs, especially considering that Taylor has played  Mike Napoli Jersey just 154 total snaps at left tackle between college and the NFL. Of course, Taylor is talented as he allowed the third-lowest pre sure rate among tackles last season, but it will be a transition for him to move over to the left side. Meanwhile, the Chiefs do appear to be confident in their in-house options at receiver and expect and/or to take a leap in 2023 after allowing both JuJu Smith-Schuster and Mecole Hardman to leave in free agency without bringing anyone aboard.           Pick Six Newsletter   Crafted By The Best NFL Experts   Get the day's big stories + fun stuff you love like Bob Feller Jersey  mock drafts, picks and power rankings.     I agree to receive the "Pick Six Newsletter" and marketing communications, updates, special offers (including partner offers), and other information from CBS Sports and the Paramount family of companies.  By pre sing sign up, I confirm that I have read and agree to the and acknowledge Paramount's .                 Please check the opt-in box to acknowledge that you would like to subscribe.       Thanks for signing up!   Keep an eye on your inbox.     Sorry!   There was an error proce sing your subscription.     Additions: LB ( )Re-signings: IDL , P , RT , TE Donald Parham, CB , K , LT , QB Departures: IDL ( ), RT (Saints), LB Drue TranquillIt's been a rather quiet offseason for the Chargers after spending big a year ago. Eric Kendricks is their lone notable addition and Blank Jersey  will be their starting off-ball linebacker. That said, arguably their most important addition this offseason comes on the offensive side of the ball with the hiring of offensive coordinator . The 34-year-old helped develop over his tenure in Dallas and should help continue to mold into one of the elite quarterbacks that the NFL has to offer, which is a nice feather in the team's pocket for the offseason.  Aside from the lack of moves, what puts L.A. in the "C-" range is the po sibility of losing one of their key weapons in . The team has allowed him to seek a Omar Vizquel Jersey  trade, which would subtract a player who has averaged nearly 1,600 yards per season over the last two years and 19 touchdowns.Additions: QB (49ers), TE ( ), WR (Patriots), CB (Colts), WR (Commanders), LB ( ), WR ( ), EDGE (49ers), RT ( ), CB (Vikings), CB ( ), S (Bills), S ( ), LS (Broncos), (Texans)Re-signings: RT , RB , IDL , FB , RT , RB , C , WR , TE , RG , CB , LB   Departures: TE (trade with ), QB (Saints), EDGE , LB (Texans), WR (Falcons), IDL ( ), LS (Cowboys), CB (Bengals), QB (Broncos)The Raiders have been the busiest team in the division this offseason when it comes to reshaping the  Corey Kluber Jersey roster. The biggest move comes under center where the team released longtime starter Derek Carr and has since replaced him with Jimmy Garoppolo. While the former 49ers quarterback is better, this is more of a lateral move in my eyes. Garoppolo has familiarity with Josh McDaniels' offense from their days in New England together, but I'm not sure this quarterback swap will push Las Vegas into true contention for the AFC West title. Jakobi Meyers was a solid addition as a true No. 2 option opposite of , but trading away star tight end Darren Waller was a bit of a head-scratcher. He would have been an ideal target for Garoppolo over the middle of the field, but he'll now have to settle for O.J. Howard and/or Austin Hooper, which feels like a notable downgrade. Meanwhile, retaining Josh Jacobs on the franchise tag was a savvy move.Overall, these were good signings for the Raiders but lacked a true splash that would have put them more seriously into the division-title conversation.  Additions: RT (49ers), TE (Jaguars), CB (Texans), IDL ( ), P (Rams), RB ( ), LG ( ), QB Jarrett Stidham (Raiders), WR (Saints), RB (Bengals)Re-signings: LB , CB , S , LB , RT Departures: RG ( , RB ( ), LT (Patriots), RB (Texans), TE (Texans), TE ( ), IDL ( ), IDL (Seahawks), WR (Dolphins), P (Patriots), LS Jacob Bobenmoyer (Raiders)  Similar to what we did with the Matt Belisle Jersey  Chargers and Kellen Moore, you can't talk about Denver's offseason without mentioning the arrival of head coach Sean Payton, who the team acquired in a trade with the Saints. Payton is the Broncos' best shot at rekindling the magic that had in Seattle and helping turn the franchise around after an abysmal season in 2022. On top of his new leadership, Denver also helped out Wilson by adding to the offensive line in a big way, handing out lucrative contracts to right tackle Mike McGlinchey and guard Ben Powers. Wilson was sacked a league-high 55 times last season, which certainly did help his transition to the Broncos. Their arrival should give him more stability inside the pocket. Those moves  Carlos Baerga Jersey put Wilson in a position to succeed, which is all you can ask for at this point. That said, I am fascinated by the addition of quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who could be an option for the team to start if Payton truly finds out that the well has run dry with Wilson.
