Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall C
ValueD- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureC-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Chargers get a C.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Chargers started one anyway for Keaten Wade, 187 picks ahead of schedule. It washes out to a C, no better and no worse.

Fannin Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

So much rides on Jack Sawyer that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
The board had cheaper options than Jack Sawyer at the 25th overall pick, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick57 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Circle this one: Harold Fannin Jr. at No. 57 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick60 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A reach for Tyleik Williams in the 60th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick61 Rnd2 David Walker
David Walker in slot 61 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Mykel Williams
Mykel Williams at the Round 3 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick161 Rnd5 Phillip Webb
They left a pile of value on the table to take Phillip Webb this early at pick No. 161. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant at slot 175 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick180 Rnd6 Steven Parker
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Steven Parker. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick201 Rnd6 Keaten Wade
They talked themselves into Keaten Wade at pick 201, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick214 Rnd6 Mason Taylor
They reached into another round for Mason Taylor, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick222 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in the 222nd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick252 Rnd7 Terion Stewart
A big swing on Terion Stewart at pick No. 252, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
