Pair of Ducks land with Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers in new NFL mock draft
Justin Herbert throwing a long touchdown pass to Tez Johnson would be a fun sight to see in Los Angeles.
According to one mock draft from Athlon Sports, the Chargers will draft Johnson in the fourth round, giving Herbert some much-needed weaponry on the outside or in the slot. Johnson seems to be quite the mystery for these mock drafts. Some have Johnson going as high as the fourth round and some have him going undrafted. Whichever team manages to draft him or sign as a free agent is getting a quality receiver.
But Johnson isn't the only Duck Athlon has going to Los Angeles to help Herbert, only this time on defense They have defensive lineman Jamaree Caldwell being drafted in the third round (86th overall).
Athlon likes the Ducks' chances of being well-represented in the 2025 draft. The highest Oregon player Athlon has is defensive lineman Derrick Harmon, going as the 30th overall pick to Buffalo. This is their analysis.
"This year's loaded class of interior defensive line prospects is a gift for the Bills, who need another impact player to line up next to Ed Oliver," writer Luke Easterling said. "Harmon was an absolute wrecking ball for the Ducks last season after transferring from Michigan State, and he could make an instant impact for a Super Bowl contender."
A number of Ducks are projected to be selected next month, including offensive lineman Josh Conerly (New England, 38th overall), edge rusher Jordan Burch (Cleveland, 68th overall), linebacker Jeffrey Bassa (Detroit, 102nd overall), cornerback Jabbar Muhammad (New York Jets, 110th overall), tight end Terrance Ferguson (Miami, 116th overall) and offensive lineman Ajani Cornelius (Jacksonville, 126th overall).
