Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureD
The Chargers land in the muddy middle: C+.

The Bucky Irving selection is the head-turner. The Chargers reached 24 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Landing Hart that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
They took Brock Bowers at par in the 6th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick16 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In pick No. 16 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at slot 48 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in No. 70 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick80 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick143 Rnd5 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick 143 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing in slot 184 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
