This is an interesting pick for Los Angeles. Most mock drafts have them taking an offensive lineman, which I would ultimately do. But the simulation instead called for versatile Notre Dame linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah.

Owusu-Koramoah is an interesting fit with the Chargers, in that he can play linebacker, while also filling in at safety and at slot on occasion. Owusu-Koramoah’s work in the slot is particularly impressive, and I foresee a scenario where he lines up with Kenneth Murray in the box on early downs, then shifts to the slot to cover on passing downs. Either way, he provides a lot of value.
