Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Chargers: B-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Chargers took Jalen Thompson a full 99 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Coleman.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jake Slaughter
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
A reach for A'Mauri Washington in the 58th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jonah Coleman
A quiet steal in pick 64: Jonah Coleman for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Chase Bisontis well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jude Bowry
Jude Bowry in the 126th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jalen Thompson
Jalen Thompson at pick No. 205 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick251 Rnd7 Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh at slot 251 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
