Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Chargers let Amos fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Trey Amos had no business being available in No. 253, and the Chargers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 Mike Green
Mike Green at pick No. 58 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Grey Zabel
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Grey Zabel in the 87th pick, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
Taking Jahdae Barron in the 124th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127 Rnd4 Tre Harris
Circle this one: Tre Harris at slot 127 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen in No. 159 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
Steal is underselling it; Jihaad Campbell at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick177 Rnd5 Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick183 Rnd6 Cam Ward
They will replay Cam Ward at Round 6, Pick 5 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick201 Rnd6 Devin Neal
Devin Neal in pick No. 201 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick215 Rnd6 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick220 Rnd7 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at the 220th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick253 Rnd7 Trey Amos
Somehow Trey Amos was still sitting there in the 253rd overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
