The Chargers cashed the board's mistake on McNeil-Warren: B.

When a board-topper like Emmanuel McNeil-Warren slides to Round 3, Pick 22, you do not overthink it, and the Chargers did not.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In slot 22 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in Round 2, Pick 23 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick86 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
The board fumbled Emmanuel McNeil-Warren all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at pick 123 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Bobby Jamison-Travis
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bobby Jamison-Travis. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
