The LA Chargers made a surprising move in the 2020 NFL Draft when they traded their second and third-round pick to the New England Patriots in exchange for the 23rd overall pick, selecting Kenneth Murray.
Murray is a much-needed physical, run-stuffing brute of an inside linebacker that definitely feels like he is worth the trade up. While on paper it seemed like a lot, the Chargers essentially traded a third-round pick to move up 14 spots back into the first round.
The LA Chargers have not traded up in the first round often in the team’s history, only doing so five times, in fact.
