Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall C-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Chargers to a C-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Chargers took Jalyx Hunt at the Round 3 slot, roughly 37 spots before his name belonged.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Chargers indulged a want in Hunt while a need in interior defensive lineman, wide receiver and other spots stayed open.

Getting Amegadjie where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the 5th overall pick they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in No. 37 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Kiran Amegadjie worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jalyx Hunt
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went S-EDGE with Jalyx Hunt while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, wide receiver and other spots sat open.
Pick98 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at the 98th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A reach on Darius Robinson in slot 105; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick122 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Beaux Limmer well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183 Rnd6 Isaiah Davis
No drama and no debate, Isaiah Davis went about where he belonged in slot 183. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
They paid a round early for Trevor Keegan in Round 7, Pick 6, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
