The Chargers drafted Joe Reed in the fifth-round, but the additions didn’t stop there.
Los Angeles drafted former Ohio State WR K.J. Hill with their final pick in the draft (No. 220).
Getting Hill in the seventh-round is an absolute steal. He finished as my No. 93 overall player and 14th-ranked wide receiver on my top-100 big board.
Hill is an efficient route runner from the slot who possesses the short-area quickness, hands, and flashes of playmaking ability. His lack of size, strength and speed holds him back, but he knows how to consistently get open to mask the deficiencies.
Along with being a technician in the route-running department, Hill has a knack for making acrobatic catches and plenty of third-down & red zone conversions. In addition to that, he is an outstanding blocker.
Hill and Reed join a wide receiver room that features Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Andre Patton and Darius Jennings.
Prior to the draft, this position needed attention. The selection of Reed was solid, but getting Hill in the seventh-round is an absolute home run.
