Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 6 slot: the Chargers steal Lacy and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Chargers were there to profit. Kyren Lacy, the No. 134 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 183. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Gregory has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. 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.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In pick 22 they get a difference-maker at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at the 37th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at Round 3, Pick 22 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick124 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
They barely believed it either: Carson Schwesinger still on the board at the Round 4 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick159 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
They let Oronde Gadsden II come to them and pounced at pick No. 159. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick177 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in the 177th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183 Rnd6 Kyren Lacy
They will replay Kyren Lacy at No. 183 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at slot 201 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jacob Parrish
No edge and no loss on Jacob Parrish in slot 220; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick253 Rnd7 Eric Gregory
Eric Gregory at No. 253 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
