Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers cashed the board's mistake on Washington: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chargers watched A'Mauri Washington slide 26 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Pregnon reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Emmanuel Pregnon
In slot 22 they get a long-term starter on the line, though they paid up to get him.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jake Slaughter in the 56th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick87 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in pick No. 87 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick122 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren slid further than he should have, and No. 122 is lovely value for the safety. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick204 Rnd6 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at the 204th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
