Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueA+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Chargers and Ward: B+.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Cam Ward tumbling to the Chargers in the 206th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 22nd overall pick they get a problem off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at slot 56 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick86 Rnd3 Nick Emmanwori
Taking Nick Emmanwori in Round 3, Pick 22 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick125 Rnd4 Walter Nolen
They will replay Walter Nolen at pick No. 125 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick158 Rnd5 Armand Membou
They robbed the room for Armand Membou here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach the 169th pick and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick181 Rnd6 Savion Williams
Steal is underselling it; Savion Williams at No. 181 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick199 Rnd6 Devin Neal
A running back of that caliber at slot 199 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick206 Rnd6 Cam Ward
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Cam Ward in Round 6, Pick 30, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick209 Rnd6 Trey Amos
Trey Amos in the 209th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick214 Rnd6 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in No. 214 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick255 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
Circle this one: Dylan Fairchild at pick 255 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
