Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The Chargers worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

The Chargers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Blake Corum at pick 38 regardless, 40 picks early.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

The Dillon Radunz pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In No. 13 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
Value said wait; T'Vondre Sweat in the 37th overall pick says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick38 Rnd2 Blake Corum
This one needs a full-page explanation: Blake Corum in pick No. 38, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jackson Powers-Johnson well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick69 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
No edge and no loss on Johnny Wilson in pick 69; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 Cade Stover
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cade Stover. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dallin Holker
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dallin Holker this early at the 112th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick142 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
A reach on Darius Robinson in slot 142; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
A reasonable price with a little left over, Sam Hartman in No. 183. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick184 Rnd6 Christian Jones
They took Christian Jones at par in the 184th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226 Rnd7 Cody Schrader
They paid a round early for Cody Schrader in Round 7, Pick 6, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
