FutureB+
The Chargers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Sai'vion Jones, 56 picks early at pick 86. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
The Gadsden II pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In slot 30 they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick56
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick86
Rnd3
Sai'vion Jones
A wild overpay on Sai'vion Jones in the 86th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108
Rnd4
David Walker
This one needs a full-page explanation: David Walker in the 108th overall pick, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick124
Rnd4
O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at pick No. 124 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick159
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
They took Bhayshul Tuten at par in No. 159, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick177
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jonah Monheim reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick183
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
They will replay Oronde Gadsden II at slot 183 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick201
Rnd6
Ollie Gordon II
Steal is underselling it; Ollie Gordon II at the 201st overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
Nice patience on Jordan Hancock, who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 37. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick220
Rnd7
Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike in pick 220 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick253
Rnd7
Jaylin Smith
Jaylin Smith at the 253rd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
