Wade's version of the mock had the Chargers taking Clemson interior defensive lineman Peter Woods in round one, Oklahoma edge R Mason Thomas at No. 55 in round two, and Kentucky guard Jalen Farmer in round three.

  • R Mason Thomas to be picked at number 55

    “it's our Mason Thomas, the edge from Oklahoma... You get him at 55, which I do think he's a flawed enough player to slide there.”
