Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall C-
ValueF NeedB+ TradesF FutureC+
The phones sank the Chargers this weekend: C-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Chargers started one anyway for Jackie Marshall, 146 picks ahead of schedule.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Stukes falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Bryce Lance
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a weapon on the perimeter, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Domonique Orange
They reached into another round for Domonique Orange, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick86 Rnd3 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in pick 86 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes at the 123rd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick124 Rnd4 Genesis Smith
Genesis Smith in the 124th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick154 Rnd5 Reggie Virgil
A reach for Reggie Virgil in pick No. 154; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick155 Rnd5 Caleb Douglas
Caleb Douglas in pick No. 155 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Lake McRee
Lake McRee at slot 174 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick204 Rnd6 Deven Eastern
They reached a country mile for Deven Eastern at Round 6, Pick 23, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Brent Austin
Brent Austin at No. 211 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233 Rnd7 Garrett DiGiorgio
Garrett DiGiorgio at the 233rd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Isaac Smith
Value said wait; Isaac Smith in pick 250 says they were not listening. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jackie Marshall
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jackie Marshall in the Round 7 slot, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
