Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 250: the Chargers steal Lacy and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chargers watched Kyren Lacy slide 36 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The cost of the Caldwell reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In No. 12 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Ollie Gordon II
They took Ollie Gordon II at par in the 43rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jabbar Muhammad
They let Jabbar Muhammad come to them and pounced at the 84th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick118 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
They barely believed it either: Danny Stutsman still on the board at pick 118. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick153 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at Round 5, Pick 15 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. is a better player than slot 175 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick180 Rnd6 Bryson Nesbit
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 6 slot with a little surplus value in Bryson Nesbit. The roster fit checks out.
Pick190 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at pick No. 190 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jamaree Caldwell
A reach for Jamaree Caldwell in the 213th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick220 Rnd7 Gentry Williams
They will replay Gentry Williams at pick No. 220 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick250 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
Circle this one: Kyren Lacy at the 250th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
