FutureB
The Chargers worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+. There is reaching, and then there is Jaylen Harrell at pick No. 155. The Chargers jumped the board by 56 and dared it to prove them wrong.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Brock Bowers
In pick No. 7 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick37
Rnd2
Graham Barton
Graham Barton at the 37th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick53
Rnd2
Zach Frazier
The board had cheaper options than Zach Frazier at pick 53, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick69
Rnd3
Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106
Rnd4
Caelen Carson
Circle this one: Caelen Carson at Round 4, Pick 6 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright at the 139th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick142
Rnd5
Justin Rogers
Value said wait; Justin Rogers in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick155
Rnd5
Jaylen Harrell
They reached a country mile for Jaylen Harrell at slot 155, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick183
Rnd6
Austin Stogner
A wild overpay on Austin Stogner in the 183rd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick184
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
No edge and no loss on Michael Barrett in pick No. 184; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick223
Rnd7
Zion Logue
They reached into another round for Zion Logue, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick256
Rnd7
Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at the 256th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
