The Los Angeles Chargers address both sides of the ball in Dane Brugler’s seven-round mock draft.

Round 7 | Dalton Keene, Virginia Tech

The Chargers round out their draft with a tight end. Los Angeles placed the franchise tag on Hunter Henry, indicating that they want his services for at least one more year (barring any long-term extension before the 2020 season), and they signed former XFL TE Donald Parham.

However, insurance is needed in case Henry isn’t able to stay healthy next season. Keene is an athletic play-maker who is an effective in the passing game and run-blocking department, projecting as a developmental tight end with the possibility of serving as an H-Back.
