I do not see a need to go and do this right away. No DEF on the list jumps out at me. Plus, it is hard to predict these things at this time. With a 10 teamer, there will always be some quality to pick up at any time.
Pretty nice tea, by the way. You really do not need 3 QBs on your squad though. Campbell could be used as a roster spot that can be dropped for any potential starters/breakout guys at any time. There should be a nice option or 2 at WR that could bolster your depth there.

I think you should stick with the Chargers defense because they have a great schedule for their first 6 games. I actually targeted them in my league. First 6 games: KC, JAX, SEA, AZ, OAK, STL. In week five or so, start looking at defenses that you can pick up starting in week 7 and beyond.

No need to waste a waiver on a defense unless they are unbelievably good. Those defenses aren't.
