Chargers add weapon for Justin Herbert in Daniel Jeremiah’s second mock draft

In NFL Media’s Daniel Jeremiah’s first mock draft, the Chargers took Utah tight end Dalton Kincaid.

In his second one, Los Angeles addresses the same side of the ball by getting Justin Herbert another weapon in TCU wide receiver Quentin Johnston.

Speed on the outside has been a missing element for the Chargers. Johnston fills that need.

Johnston has excellent speed to win vertically and break away from defenders in the open field. His athleticism and agility allow him to gain separation on various routes. At 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds, Johnston uses his great size as a massive catch radius and to outmuscle cornerbacks.

Emerging as one of the top receivers in college football, Johnston finished with 60 receptions for 1,069 yards and six touchdowns for the Horned Frogs this season en route to earning First-Team All Big-12.

Some see Johnston as this year’s No. 1 wide receiver in this draft class, so landing the explosive playmaker with rare physical traits would be excellent value with the No. 21 overall selection. He would be a welcome addition to a wideout room that desperately needs speed.
