For the most part, the Chargers roster is set. They may make a few more moves, but this is the team they will roll with into camp.

With such a long time from now until the regular season, there’s plenty of time to speculate who will and will not make Los Angeles’ 53-man roster.

With that being said, here is my very early prediction for the team’s Week 1 roster.

Quarterbacks (2): Justin Herbert, Chase Daniel

Misses the cut: Easton Stick

Running backs (4): Austin Ekeler, Justin Jackson, Joshua Kelley, Larry Rountree III

Misses the cut: Darius Bradwell

Offensive linemen (10): Rashawn Slater, Matt Feiler, Corey Linsley, Oday Aboushi, Bryan Bulaga, Trey Pipkins, Brenden Jaimes, Tyree St. Louis, Storm Norton, Scott Quessenberry

Misses the cut: Nate Gilliam, Ryan Hunter

Defensive linemen (6): Linval Joseph, Justin Jones, Jerry Tillery, Christian Covington, Breiden Fehoko, Cortez Broughton

Misses the cut: Joe Gaziano, T.J. Smith

Edge defender (5): Joey Bosa, Uchenna Nwosu, Kyler Fackrell, Chris Rumph II, Emeke Egbule

Misses the cut: Jesse Lemonier

Linebackers (4): Kenneth Murray, Drue Tranquill, Kyzir White, Nick Niemann
