Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Chargers and Williams: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Isaiah Williams got past him. The Chargers do not have to explain a thing at Round 7, Pick 5. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

They will need Tagovailoa to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through offensive lineman.

The veteran additions, Logan Wilson chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 23 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at the 37th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick69 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Xavier Worthy at the 69th overall pick is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Maason Smith
A straight-up fair deal on Maason Smith at Round 4, Pick 5, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
The board had Caelen Carson higher than pick No. 110, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at slot 115 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick140 Rnd5 Mohamed Kamara
A quiet steal in pick 140: Mohamed Kamara for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick167 Rnd5 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader in slot 167 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A real head-scratcher, Jared Wiley in pick 181 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick225 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Williams reach the 225th pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa in the 253rd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
