Chargers move up to get Matthews

The San Diego Chargers moved aggressively from the bottom of the first round to the middle to grab running back Ryan Matthews.

The Chargers have just Darren Sproles in the backfield, so getting a running back was a top priority.

Matthews is a tough runner who has a good blend of power and speed. He will instantly become the starting running back.

While San Diego may have moved up way too far to get Matthews, at least they got the player they wanted.

It was possibly but probably unlikely that Matthews would have been sitting there for them still at the No. 28 pick.
