The Los Angeles Chargers are finally living up to expectations early on in the season, and their offensive weaponry looks as strong as ever.

Travis Benjamin’s usage offensively is down below 14 percent and the team could possibly seek upgrades at other positions and use Benjamin as a bargaining chip.

Why would he be an attracitve piece to other teams?

Benjamin is one of the fastest players in the NFL and has proven himself a very capable deep threat over the years. A team like New England would probably find a place for him in their offense, but would the Chargers deal him to another AFC contender?

That’s the only barrier between a deal like this happening. If the Chargers deal anyone, it will probably be someone like this who isn’t making a significant impact right now.
