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

There is reaching, and then there is Trey Moore at the 183rd overall pick. The Chargers jumped the board by 110 and dared it to prove them wrong.

The Ferguson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 22 they get a mismatch in the passing game at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at pick 55 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick86 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 86, where Omarr Norman-Lott graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at the 124th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick159 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
They took Damien Martinez at par in Round 5, Pick 20, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
They barely believed it either: Terrance Ferguson still on the board at slot 177. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick183 Rnd6 Trey Moore
Value said wait; Trey Moore in No. 183 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Hancock at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at Round 6, Pick 37 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick220 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at the 220th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at slot 253 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
