The Chargers solidified the backfield with the selection of former UCLA running back Joshua Kelley in the fourth-round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
The fact that Los Angeles addressed the running back position before offensive tackle, wide receiver or cornerback was head-scratching for many fans.
However, coach Anthony Lynn has made the point that he wants to establish the run game. Kelley offers a powerful and productive back who will be able to do more than just produce in short yardage situations.
He possesses the possesses quickness, burst, lateral agility, contact balance along with passing game ability to gain yards. If he refines his pass-blocking technique, he has the opportunity to become a feature back eventually.
I give the selection of Kelley a B+. Chargers fans, what do you think of the selection?
