Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Chargers let Simon fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chargers watched Cody Simon slide 73 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Yarns reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
A slide stopped in the 55th pick, with Benjamin Morrison worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
They went early on Jared Ivey in the Round 2 slot, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson in No. 86 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick125 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Pat Bryant. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at pick 158 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick181 Rnd6 CJ West
They paid sticker price for CJ West in the 181st overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at slot 199 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick209 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at pick 209 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick214 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
You do not let a tight end like Oronde Gadsden II reach the 214th overall pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick226 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
A wild overpay on Marcus Yarns in slot 226, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick256 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Steal is underselling it; Isaac TeSlaa at No. 256 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
