NFL Draft 2016: San Diego Chargers Day 2 selections

facebooktwitterreddit

Here is the complete 2016 NFL Draft order for the San Diego Chargers.

The San Diego Chargers had a rough 2015-16 season, finishing bottom of the AFC West with a 4-12 record. The pressure is now on head coach Mike McCoy to turn things around. In a tough division containing reigning Super Bowls champs, the Denver Broncos, the Kansas City Chiefs, and an Oakland Raiders team that strengthened significantly in free agency, this draft is going to be crucial for the Chargers. 

In the first round, San Diego took former Ohio State defensive end Joey Bosa with the No. 3 overall pick. Bosa comes with a huge upside and has been compared, a little optimistically, to J.J. Watt. In his three years as a Buckeye, Bosa recorded 25 sacks and 51 tackles for a loss in 38 games. The Chargers will have the opportunity to add two more young prospects on Day 2 as they have picks in both the second and third rounds.

Here’s a look at where the Chargers pick on Day 2 of the NFL Draft:

Draft Picks

  • 2nd Round, 35th overall
  • 3rd Round, 66th overall

The second day of the NFL Draft starts at 6 p.m. ET on ESPN and NFL Network.
