Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz reflects on his first draft class with the Bolts.

Joe Hortiz is considering his first NFL Draft as the Los Angeles Chargers general manager a success. While speaking to the press after the draft, Hortiz couldn't help but express his excitement about his first draft class with the Chargers .

The Chargers took nine players in total during the 2024 NFL Draft, beginning with Notre Dame offensive tackle Joe Alt. The Bolts also drafted wide receivers Ladd McConkey,, and Cornelius Johnson, linebacker Junior Colson, defensive lineman Justin Eboigbe, running back Kimani Vidal and defensive backs Cam Hart and Tarheeb Still.

“I’m really excited the way it went," Hortiz said at his presser."Especially you look at our first pick, we take Joe . I don’t know how many tackles went in the first two days of the draft, we feel we got our best player on the board, certainly the best tackle on the board. It worked out great from that way. The opportunity to take the players we took each time, we were just excited to take every one of the players.

Along with Alt, Hortiz is feeling the excitement of this class thanks to the other players they were able to land. After Alt, the Chargers brought in three quality receivers in McConkey, Rice and Johnson. More importantly, these picks at least make the Chargers better on paper since the Bolts were able to snatch good players who can fill in holes and weak spots on their roster.

Overall, the Chargers leave this draft understandably optimistic and excited for the first season of the Hortiz and Harbaugh regime to begin.Chargers News: Trojans RB Reacts to Potentially Being Drafted by Bolts
