The Chargers rounded out their draft class with the selection of former Ohio State wide receiver K.J. Hill.
It’s safe to say that fans of the team were excited when the pick was announced.
Here’s a look at Twitter:

ESPN is stunned K.J. Hill made it to the seventh round, saying he's a master route-running slot receiver whose biggest knock is he couldn't run a 4.4.
Hill: 4.60
Keenan Allen ran a 4.71 and 4.75

K.J. Hill was such a steal in the Draft. Projected to go into the 3rd round got selected into the 7th round. Great job @Chargers ⚡️⚡️⚡️

K.J. Hill is gonna win the slot job in L.A., benefit from the attention being paid to Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, and halfway through next season everyone (read: a bunch of dummies) are gonna go "where the heck did this dude come from?"

K.J. Hill in the 7th is stupid value. I love it.

.@TonyPauline: "K.J. Hill is a terrific receiver with terrible size/speed numbers. Don't be surprised if he develops into a solid fourth wide out on the depth chart." https://t.co/PaL0rG4vEJ
