Just when I thought it impossible to get any more bullish on the Chargers, this has me doubling down on Ladd McConkey in the late third round. Sure, Mike McDaniel's new in town, but I highly doubt it affects LA's 11-personnel—he posted +49% use and +78% throw rates across his first two seasons in Miami.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

McConkey in late third round is undervalued; Chargers' 3-WR rate and McDaniel's scheme support upside.

Ladd McConkey's late-third-round ADP is undervalued given the Chargers' 3-WR deployment exceeding 65% with a 68% throw rate. Laghezza doubled down on bullishness on McConkey, noting that Mike McDaniel's arrival is unlikely to reduce LA's 11-personnel usage, which posted +49% use and +78% throw rates in McDaniel's first two seasons in Miami.
