Which Prospects Would Fill the Biggest Need, Value For Chargers at No. 22 Overall?

Fellow ESPN colleague Mel Kiper, Jr., has the 6-foot-5 ½ tight end as his No. 7 overall prospect, while Reid ranked him at No. 10.

A tight end at No. 22 would give the Bolts a long-term player at the position, but on the other hand, Reid believes adding in a pass catcher on the outside would be more valuable to this Chargers team.

He went with Ohio State wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, his No. 21 overall prospect.

More pass-game help for quarterback Justin Herbert never hurts, and Egbuka is the best wide receiver remaining on my board. He’s a steady and detailed route runner with excellent hands.

Egbuka, who finished second all-time in Ohio State history with 2,868 career receiving yards, was a dependable target with the Buckeyes and became just the second Ohio State player to have two 1,000-yard receiving seasons.

Adding him is something Reid believes would be more valuable for the Chargers offense and give the team another young receiver to pair alongside Ladd McConkey as well.
