We're two weeks away from the NFL Draft, Charger fans. A lot can happen on draft day, whether that's trades being made or the eventual players that could change the franchise forever. 

The Chargers have seven draft picks this season, and LA will be primed to get a skilled offensive player in the draft. Fans and pundits are speculating who they can get, including what positions to target. It's all a mystery right now, but one thing is for sure; LA will draft a running back. 

The running back position in the draft is loaded with talent, including TCU running back Kendre Miller. Miller will be drafted in this year's draft; could it be by the Bolts? LA has expressed interest in the TCU back, as he is on their radar. 

According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, Los Angeles met with former TCU RB Kendre Miller this past Saturday.

The 20-year-old running back led this team to the National Championship this past collegiate season. On top of that, he had a fantastic junior season in Texas; he earned first-team All Big-12 honors and AP first-team All Big-12 while rushing for 1,399 yards to become the first RB to rush for over 1,000 yards since 2016. 

His 1,399 yards were the most rushing yards since TCU great and Charger great LaDainian Tomlinson, who led the nation with 2,158 yards in 2000. It's almost like it's destined for Miller to follow in the footsteps of one of the greatest running backs in NFL history. 

We'll find out soon enough if history repeats itself.
