Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Chargers went off the board in a big way for Tyler Batty, 97 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Barton steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at the 55th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Circle this one: Jihaad Campbell at pick 86 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick124 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in slot 124 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick157 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
The board fumbled Cam Skattebo all the way to No. 157, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tonka Hemingway. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
A real head-scratcher, Tyler Batty in No. 198 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Taking Jordan Hancock in the Round 6 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick213 Rnd6 Aydan White
Aydan White at the 213th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd7 Lander Barton
Lander Barton in pick No. 217 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick252 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
You do not let an offensive lineman like Seth McLaughlin reach pick 252 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
