The Chargers picked NT Vaughn Martin in the fourth round.
Played in Canada. Reach, right?
Maybe. Maybe not. Check out these measurables (http://www.nfl.com/draft/2009/profiles/vaughn-martin?id=90404):
Pick Analysis: Martin grew up in Canada and attended college north of the border. Nobody really knows the quality of his competition in college, but he had a great workout at Michigan's pro day. It's ironic that he wound up getting drafted before any Michigan player. He ran a 4.96 40 at 330 pounds and had 44 bench press reps. He gives the Chargers a 5-technique DE and has the bulk to be a nose tackle.
Wow. And I mean wow. What a pick.
