The Los Angeles Chargers just added wide receiver depth at No. 105 by drafting Brenen Thompson, a speed merchant whose scorched-earth 4.26-second 40-yard dash (100th-percentile) makes him the ultimate vertical threat in an offense designed to maximize explosive plays. Thompson earned a 23.1% Target Share (64th-percentile) while averaging a massive 17.9 Yards Per Reception at Mississippi State, proving he can dominate as a field-stretcher despite a late 22.1 Breakout Age.

 

In Dynasty, he joins a crowded WR room behind Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston and Tre Harris, but can carve out a role as that field stretcher, with a top speed of nearly 24 mph.  He should be considered a late round rookie pick.
