Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chargers: B-.

You can usually follow a front office's logic. This one is harder. The Chargers spent pick No. 123 on Tommy Eichenberg while quarterback sat unaddressed. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The cost of the Logue reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The Bishop value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In slot 5 they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Good price on Ja'Tavion Sanders in pick 60, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick64 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
No drama and no debate, Zach Frazier went about where he belonged in No. 64. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Nice patience on Chris Braswell, who had no business lasting to the 65th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They paid up for Mike Sainristil at slot 69 when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at the 74th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick83 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
A reach for Bucky Irving in Round 3, Pick 19; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick85 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Michael Hall Jr.. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in slot 119 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback to take Tommy Eichenberg, a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick125 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington in pick No. 125 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Will Shipley
By-the-book stuff, Will Shipley at pick 129 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick142 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
The board had Cole Bishop higher than the 142nd pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick162 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
They took Zion Tupuola-Fetui at par in Round 5, Pick 26, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick183 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner at No. 183 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick213 Rnd6 Kenny Logan Jr.
A tidy little value on Kenny Logan Jr. in the 213th overall pick, a step better than break-even. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick226 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
They paid sticker price for Daequan Hardy in the 226th overall pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick230 Rnd7 Zion Logue
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zion Logue. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
