Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall D+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Chargers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D+.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Chargers would have aced it. DJ Uiagalelei at No. 256 is 53 spots clear of where he belonged. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Chargers clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In pick 22 they get a seam-stretching tight end at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in Round 2, Pick 23 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick86 Rnd3 Deone Walker
No drama and no debate, Deone Walker went about where he belonged in the 86th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick98 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
They liked Cam Skattebo enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 98. It fills a real need, too.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jonas Sanker
They paid up for Jonas Sanker at the 125th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick158 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They reached a country mile for Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 158, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quincy Riley. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
A wild overpay on Desmond Watson in slot 199, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick209 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
They left a pile of value on the table to take Isaac TeSlaa this early at pick No. 209. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick214 Rnd6 Ahmed Hassanein
A real head-scratcher, Ahmed Hassanein in the 214th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256 Rnd7 DJ Uiagalelei
DJ Uiagalelei at the 256th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
