Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Chargers.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Kade Pieper at the Round 2 slot, a reach of 31 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 A'Mauri Washington
In pick 22 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kade Pieper
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kade Pieper. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick86 Rnd3 Anto Saka
A wild overpay on Anto Saka in the 86th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Brandon Inniss
Brandon Inniss at pick No. 123 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick202 Rnd6 Sammy Omosigho
Sammy Omosigho at the 202nd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
