The Los Angeles Chargers will be under the microscope during Thursday's NFL draft since they have the No. 5 overall pick in Jim Harbaugh's first draft since taking over as head coach, and a number of possibilities are reportedly on the table.

Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated reported on the Chargers' outlook and noted the AFC West team is "open to moving down," which is a scenario he deemed more likely if the Arizona Cardinals do not trade out of the No. 4 pick.

Perhaps Arizona will decide to trade that selection to a team that takes a quarterback instead of using it on wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. In such a scenario, Breer suggested the Ohio State wide receiver "would make a lot of sense" for the Chargers considering they moved on from both Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

He also said he has been told to "keep an eye on an offensive lineman" when it comes to the No. 5 selection.

The Chargers have a number of needs coming off a 5-12 season that led to a coaching change, which is what makes this pick so interesting.

It is also quite the valuable pick considering Los Angeles doesn't need a quarterback with Justin Herbert already on the roster. If Arizona does trade out of No. 4, quarterbacks could go with each of the first four picks in Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels and J.J. McCarthy.

That would give Harbaugh and Co. their choice of every other position on the board.

Harrison is the type of game-changing wide receiver who could be Herbert's No. 1 option for years to come. Harbaugh is certainly familiar with the pass-catcher after going against him during the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry games, and he would make the decision to move on from Allen and Williams much less difficult to deal with in the aerial attack.

So would Washington's Rome Odunze, and B/R's NFL Scouting Department projected him to end up with the Chargers with the No. 5 pick in its latest mock draft. Harrison was already off the board at No. 4 to the Cardinals in this hypothetical, but Los Angeles still addressed its need at wide receiver.

Still, Harbaugh's Michigan teams were known for their physical style of play and tendency to run the ball.

Beefing up the offensive line could allow him to better instill his preferred brand of physical, run-first football. Breer called Notre Dame's Joe Alt the "chalk pick" for Los Angeles at No. 5, although he noted there has been "a little buzz" surrounding Alabama's JC Latham as someone the team could trade down and still draft.

The Chargers have plenty of leverage regardless of what happens in front of them.

If one of those top four quarterbacks are still available, they could leverage offers from teams that need signal-callers and trade down for the best package. Or they could take one of the top receivers or offensive linemen with their own pick.

The exact strategy remains to be seen, but Harbaugh's team has a golden opportunity to improve Thursday.
