Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chargers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Chargers took Dayon Hayes at pick No. 215, roughly 78 spots before his name belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Gordon II. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a security blanket over the middle at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
They let Kaleb Johnson come to them and pounced at the 55th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick86 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at slot 86 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors is a better player than No. 124 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jordan Phillips
They barely believed it either: Jordan Phillips still on the board at the Round 5 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick177 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Somehow Pat Bryant was still sitting there in pick No. 177, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick183 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
No edge and no loss on Cobee Bryant in pick No. 183; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
They paid sticker price for Jordan Hancock in No. 201, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick215 Rnd6 Dayon Hayes
A real head-scratcher, Dayon Hayes in slot 215 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick220 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Circle this one: Ollie Gordon II at pick 220 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick253 Rnd7 Nick Martin
A conviction pick on Nick Martin at the 253rd pick that the board grades a round light. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
