Twitter reacts to Chargers’ selection of WR Quentin Johnston

With the No. 21 overall selection in the 2023 NFL draft, the Chargers took former TCU wide receiver Quentin Johnston.

Here’s the reaction social media had to the pick of Johnston to join the Bolts.

I love the Chargers’ selection of WR Quentin Johnston.

Johnston brings the deep speed Los Angeles needed. But he is so much fun to watch with the ball in his hands, with the explosiveness, wiggle and strength to break away.

Makings of a Pro Bowler paired with Justin Herbert.

I’m not saying these are the same player haha, but this is the comp for Quentin Johnston. Difference is obviously height, the rest is VERY similar. pic.twitter.com/v1ugetQoUt

Quentin Johnston is gonna bring a dimension to the offense that they didn’t have previously. Let him feast on YAC opportunities on horizontal routes as the backside Z. They can use him in similar way the Cowboys did with Lamb when he was a rookie.

Chargers have Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Josh Palmer, Gerald Everett and now Quentin Johnston.

The Chargers are just going to try to outscore everybody. Quentin Johnston is a BIG PLAY WAITING TO HAPPEN with impressive run after the catch ability for a tall receiver. Johnston will receive a lot 1 on 1 coverage lining up with Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and Joshua Palmer.

Justin Herbert was the first QB since 2005 to average less than 6.5 air yards per attempt but still throw for over 4,500 yards

The Chargers had their choice of every wide receiver outside of JSN and they take Quentin Johnston.

Not who I would have chosen, but fits what Tom Telesco loves in his wide receivers.

Quentin Johnston helped lead an offense with Max Duggan at QB to a National Championship. He can play

Justin Herbert to Quentin Johnston. It’s over. Herbert’s ADOT about to shoot up!

Had Quentin Johnston to Chargers in my mock. Love this one. He can run and they can bring him along. He’s good after catch too, they need that

Quentin Johnston was my number three overall player. Was hoping that he would end up a Vikings, but the Chargers got a good one. The fit is odd, but the player is really good
