Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureA+
The Chargers won the night they stopped Green from sliding. Grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Renardo Green got past him. The Chargers do not have to explain a thing at pick 211.

Reaching for Logue left real value on the table behind him. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

The Chargers paired the rookies with proven help, Allen Lazard leading the way.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in No. 37 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick69 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
They talked themselves into Blake Fisher at slot 69, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick116 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at Round 4, Pick 16 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd5 MarShawn Lloyd
The board had MarShawn Lloyd higher than pick 139, and the running back fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick148 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A reach for Braelon Allen in the 148th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick183 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner at pick No. 183 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187 Rnd6 Trey Knox
By-the-book stuff, Trey Knox at the 187th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick211 Rnd6 Renardo Green
Renardo Green at pick 211 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick223 Rnd7 Solomon Byrd
Solomon Byrd at the 223rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226 Rnd7 Zion Logue
They reached into another round for Zion Logue, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick256 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
A real head-scratcher, DeMonte Capehart in Round 7, Pick 36 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
