Once Harbaugh concluded with "Go Blue!" the entire war room broke out in applause.

The vibes are immaculate around the Chargers heading into a new era with Harbaugh running the show. The Chargers took top offensive tackle Joe Alt out of Notre Dame in the first round, and added Georgia wide receiver Ladd McConkey in the second round before the selection of Colson on Friday.

The Chargers have addressed positions of need with their first three picks, bolstering the offensive line and adding one of the best route-runners in the entire draft in McConkey.

As for Colson, he played in 43 games across three seasons in Ann Arbor, where he recorded 256 total tackles as one of the defense's most reliable players.

No wonder why Harbaugh was excited.
