Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall
D+
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesF
FutureA+
The Chargers lost the trade table, and the D+ tells the story. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Chargers took Jalen Sundell at the Round 7 slot, roughly 31 spots before his name belonged. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
The Suamataia pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In pick No. 5 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick6
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In No. 6 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy in Round 2, Pick 5 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick39
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
No edge and no loss on Edgerrin Cooper in pick 39; it is a wash and a sensible one. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick47
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
A slide stopped in the 47th pick, with Keon Coleman worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Nice patience on Kingsley Suamataia, who had no business lasting to the Round 3 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick70
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
A reach on Khyree Jackson in slot 70; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick85
Rnd3
Blake Corum
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Blake Corum. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139
Rnd5
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in the 139th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick256
Rnd7
Jalen Sundell
A big swing on Jalen Sundell at No. 256, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
