Nasir Adderley is a perfect free safety for the Chargers

The selection of Nasir Adderley with the 60th pick in the draft filled an immediate roster need at free safety for the Los Angeles Chargers. Much to the surprise of no one at this point, general manager Tom Telesco came up with a steal that provides both incredible value and immediate starting potential.

The former Delaware safety brings everything the Chargers have been missing at the free safety position; specifically, toughness, ball-tracking, and versatility. Here’s how he shines in each of those areas…

Toughness

Being a tough player means more than just making tackles and hitting hard; Adderley, while doing both of those things, shows tenacity and attitude when taking on run blockers.
