The Chargers likely surprised many a fan when they used this year’s fourth-round pick on former Texas A&M running back Isaiah Spiller. The team is only two years removed from using a fourth-rounder on Joshua Kelley and had just used a sixth-rounder on Larry Rountree in 2021. Taking what seemed like a shot at a RB2 in three consecutive drafts just doesn’t seem like the most ideal thing to do for a team with blatant needs elsewhere.
However, I’d be remiss to truly equate the selection of Spiller to those of Kelley and Rountree.
