Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chargers.

The Jaleel Johnson pick is the one that will follow the Chargers into the fall. They took him 28 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Washington falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Zabien Brown
In No. 22 they get a sticky cover corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick55 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in pick 55 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
No edge and no loss on Kade Pieper in the 86th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick123 Rnd4 Brandon Inniss
By-the-book stuff, Brandon Inniss at slot 123 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaleel Johnson
Value said wait; Jaleel Johnson in the 202nd pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
