Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Chargers for Jones Jr.: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Emery Jones Jr., the No. 129 name on the board, stolen at the 215th overall pick.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 22nd overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in the 55th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick86 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
They did well to land Mason Taylor in pick No. 86, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson is a better player than No. 124 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in Round 5, Pick 20 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177 Rnd5 Tory Horton
They robbed the room for Tory Horton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jack Nelson reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick201 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cobee Bryant in slot 201. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Emery Jones Jr.
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. at pick No. 220 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
Circle this one: Kyle Monangai at No. 253 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
