Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Chargers: B-.

The tape said wait; the Chargers did not. Ethan Downs went at No. 177, a good 93 picks before the board was ready. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Getting Reed where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Mike Green
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a problem off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku in pick 55 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick86 Rnd3 Tai Felton
They did well to land Tai Felton in the 86th pick, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at No. 124 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick159 Rnd5 Que Robinson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Que Robinson. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177 Rnd5 Ethan Downs
They reached into another round for Ethan Downs, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick183 Rnd6 Woody Marks
Woody Marks in the 183rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick201 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
A slide stopped in the 201st pick, with Luke Lachey worth more than the price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Mac McWilliams
A reach for Mac McWilliams in pick No. 215; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick220 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan in Round 7, Pick 2 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
They barely believed it either: Jaylen Reed still on the board at slot 253. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
