Bryan Broaddus' Bottom Line: What started off as such promise for both Taco Charlton and the front office ended up with more questions than answers. Charlton did what he had to do to get himself ready for the 2018 season. He added weight and strength which showed by the time we got to Oxnard for training camp. Charlton was able to take those physical improvements and carry those into the season where he was useful part of the rotation until a shoulder injury sideline him for five games. Charlton has since had the shoulder repaired and appears to be ready to put it behind him and prepare for the upcoming season. For Charlton, the 2019 season could go a couple of different ways for him. Depending what happens with Lawrence, who was franchised Monday, Charlton could be the starter at left defensive end or he could figure into the rotation with Tyrone Crawford on the right side until the situation with Gregory becomes resolved. Regardless, Charlton is expected to carry a big load wherever he is asked to play. In my opinion this is a make-or-break season, and how he responds with tell a great deal about his future.
