Height: 6' 4Weight: 219 poundsArms: 33 inchesHands: 9 3/8 inchesLondon attended Moorpark High School, roughly an hour away from USC's campus. At Moorpark, London was a standout in football and basketball. He was named a 2018 Prep Star All American in high school while also earning All-Camino League co-wide receiver of the year. After receiving offers from Jed Lowrie Jersey multiple west coast schools, including Cal, Oregon and Washington State, London elected to attend USC. London initially planned to be a two-sport athlete at USC but only appeared in two basketball games during the 2020 season and did not return to the team for the 2021 season. On the football field, London was one of the most explosive receivers in the Pac 12 conference. An intimidating receiver for any cornerback or safety, London was dominating throughout the COVID-19 shortened season in 2020, Dave Henderson Jersey averaging over 15 yards per reception. In his final season at USC, London averaged 135 yards per game before a fractured ankle forced him to mi s the remainder of the season after a strong first two months.Size and weight brings mismatch potential over his oppositionLarge frame allows him to win the battle for jump ballsAbility to find the deep ball, and adjust for the catchPlayed in a major conferenceConstant red zone threatFrequently used in screens and jet sweepsCan be an effective blocker Santiago Casilla Jersey at the line or downfieldEffective in finding holes in a defenseExperience working in the slot and on the outsideAdjusts to the ball wellComing off a notable, season-ending injuryReleases could be sharperSeparation doesn't come easyNot overly dynamic after the catchLacks lateral quickne s at the line of scrimmageOnly appeared in 22 college games in three seasonsSlow getting in and out of routesScroll to ContinueLondon would immediately give quarterback Justin Herbert another lethal weapon in their electric offense. London being from the Los Angeles area could provide some comfort to the young receiver to start his career near his hometown of Moorpark. For the Chargers, adding London would give them one of the best receiving trios in football. The team's pa s-catchers of Kennan Allen and Mike Andrew Triggs Jersey Williams are two highly productive players but adding another polished weapon in London, could a sist the offense in becoming the top unit in the league. Giving Herbert another weapon may go a long way in a loaded AFC West division that continues to add firepower. London's big frame would allow the Chargers to stretch the defense while also providing more depth at the wide receiver position a spot they could be in the market for adding a legitimate number three option. While wide receiver isn't the Chargers' most pre sing need, you can never have enough playmakers in the offensive-heavy division the Chargers play in.Projected Terry Steinbach Jersey draft slot: Mid to late first-roundNFL comparison:Courtland SuttonMore from Charger Report
