Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Chargers a B+.

The Chargers ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

Johnson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The Flournoy pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Dillon Radunz gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 7th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at slot 37 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick38 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick69 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa in pick 69 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick105 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at pick No. 105 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
A quiet steal in Round 4, Pick 10: Jalen McMillan for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140 Rnd5 Dillon Johnson
They talked themselves into Dillon Johnson at No. 140, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick181 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
They will replay Walter Rouse at the 181st pick for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jared Wiley
The board had Jared Wiley higher than pick 221, and the tight end fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick225 Rnd7 Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy at pick No. 225 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
Good price on Jordan Whittington in the Round 7 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
