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

There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Chargers never got to the one that mattered most.

On value alone, Washington makes the weekend a net positive. The cost of the Lucas reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Trevor Goosby
In slot 22 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
The board fumbled A'Mauri Washington all the way to Round 2, Pick 23, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
They paid sticker price for Kade Pieper in pick 86, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123 Rnd4 Xavier Lucas
They paid up for Xavier Lucas at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202 Rnd6 T.J. Moore
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T.J. Moore. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
