Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Chargers let Chambers fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chargers watched Steele Chambers slide 54 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

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
Pick6 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In No. 6 they get a matchup weapon at tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
No drama and no debate, Xavier Legette went about where he belonged in slot 37. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in the 47th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 5 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Audric Estime
They took Audric Estime at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick110 Rnd4 DeWayne Carter
They let DeWayne Carter come to them and pounced at pick No. 110. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick140 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in pick 140 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick181 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Somehow Trevor Keegan was still sitting there in the 181st pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick225 Rnd7 Trente Jones
Taking Trente Jones in the 225th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick253 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
