FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Chargers for Evans: B. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Mitchell Evans, pick No. 183, roughly 43 picks past where he belonged.
Truss has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Mykel Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55
Rnd2
Tre Harris
Tre Harris in slot 55 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick86
Rnd3
Maxwell Hairston
Value with a capital V on Maxwell Hairston in the 86th pick, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Taking Cam Skattebo in Round 4, Pick 23 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick159
Rnd5
Kobe King
They will replay Kobe King at the 159th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick183
Rnd6
Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans at pick No. 183 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick201
Rnd6
Upton Stout
Upton Stout at pick 201 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jay Higgins in No. 215, plain and simple. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick220
Rnd7
Antwane Wells Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Antwane Wells Jr. at Round 7, Pick 2 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253
Rnd7
Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss at pick 253 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
