Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers let Stutsman fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Danny Stutsman slide, and the Chargers were the ones holding the card at Round 6, Pick 22. Highway robbery.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If Stackhouse pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In slot 22 they get juice off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren slipping to pick 55 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick86 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jordan James
Jordan James in pick No. 123 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
They reached a country mile for Nazir Stackhouse at the 157th pick, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick179 Rnd6 Quinshon Judkins
Circle this one: Quinshon Judkins at the 179th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick197 Rnd6 Danny Stutsman
Steal is underselling it; Danny Stutsman at No. 197 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick208 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Smael Mondon Jr. reach Round 6, Pick 33 and blink. They did not. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick213 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at No. 213 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick218 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at Round 7, Pick 2 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jaishawn Barham
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jaishawn Barham in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
