Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Chargers, and a B- to prove it.

The Chargers bet big and early on Chase Bisontis, 28 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
The board fumbled Jake Slaughter all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
A wild overpay on Chase Bisontis in the 91st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
A real head-scratcher, DeMonte Capehart in the 126th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick208 Rnd6 Malik Hartford
Malik Hartford in slot 208 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
