Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Chargers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Kelvin Gilliam Jr. pick is the one that will follow the Chargers into the fall. They took him 188 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Hill Jr.. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. slipping to slot 26 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick57 Rnd2 Connor Lew
A conviction pick on Connor Lew at Round 2, Pick 25 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick89 Rnd3 Roderick Kearney
They reached a country mile for Roderick Kearney at pick 89, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick93 Rnd3 Darius Taylor
They talked themselves into Darius Taylor at the 93rd overall pick, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick94 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
The board had Malachi Fields higher than the Round 3 slot, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick107 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
A reach on Bray Hubbard in the 107th pick; the board had better options right there. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick131 Rnd4 Trey Moore
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trey Moore. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick175 Rnd5 Xavier Scott
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xavier Scott in the Round 5 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick179 Rnd6 Trebor Pena
Nothing to complain about; Trebor Pena went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick201 Rnd6 Markis Deal
A big swing on Markis Deal at the 201st overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick236 Rnd7 Kelvin Gilliam Jr.
Kelvin Gilliam Jr. at pick 236 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
