Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chargers.

Everything else got attention, and edge rusher got none. That is a strange way for the Chargers to leave a draft.

The Reese pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 22 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, outstanding value to boot.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in slot 55 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick86 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
They paid sticker price for Darrell Jackson Jr. in the 86th pick, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis at the 123rd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick203 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III in the Round 6 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
