Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Chargers: B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Chargers would have aced it. Zion Logue at Round 7, Pick 33 is 33 spots clear of where he belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Williams pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with tight end and offensive lineman still on the board. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Landing Harden that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 5th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
A straight-up fair deal on Kamari Lassiter at Round 2, Pick 10, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They paid sticker price for Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in No. 69, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in pick No. 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick110 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in pick 110 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 James Williams
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. James Williams in the Round 4 slot leaves tight end and offensive lineman for later.
Pick128 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mohamed Kamara. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
They took Ainias Smith at par in No. 134, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick188 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
No drama and no debate, Daijun Edwards went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 13. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick225 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Myles Harden at pick No. 225 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick248 Rnd7 Austin Reed
Austin Reed in pick 248 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Zion Logue
A real head-scratcher, Zion Logue in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
