Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureA
The Chargers won the night they stopped Jones from sliding. Grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Elijah Jones, the No. 193 name on the board, stolen at Round 7, Pick 3. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They will answer for taking DT-EDGE early while edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots went begging. The Van Pran reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Amarius Mims in the 37th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick69 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
A reach for Sedrick Van Pran in the Round 3 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 106, where Caelen Carson graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick111 Rnd4 Maason Smith
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots to take Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at pick 139 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick183 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
Value with a capital V on Walter Rouse in the 183rd overall pick, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
They barely believed it either: Elijah Jones still on the board at No. 223. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick256 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
A quiet steal in pick No. 256: Kimani Vidal for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
