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

The Chargers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 253 on Ro Torrence a full 34 spots early.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Coker at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 5th pick they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They went early on Keon Coleman in slot 37, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A wild overpay on Khyree Jackson in pick No. 69, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jared Wiley
They reached a country mile for Jared Wiley at Round 4, Pick 10, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
A reach on Isaiah Adams in the Round 4 slot; the board had better options right there. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cornelius Johnson this early at pick 140. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at slot 149 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick181 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
They paid sticker price for Khristian Boyd in No. 181, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker slipping to the Round 7 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick253 Rnd7 Ro Torrence
Ro Torrence at the 253rd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
