Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Stewart should have been long gone. The Chargers pounced, and earned a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Josaiah Stewart slide, and the Chargers were the ones holding the card at Round 7, Pick 37. Highway robbery.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In No. 22 they get an island corner at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
The board fumbled Kenneth Grant all the way to Round 2, Pick 23, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick86 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
They barely believed it either: Colston Loveland still on the board at the 86th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the Round 4 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at slot 157 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick179 Rnd6 Ashton Jeanty
A running back of that caliber at the 179th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Tre Harris
Somehow Tre Harris was still sitting there in pick 197, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick208 Rnd6 Dylan Fairchild
Taking Dylan Fairchild in pick No. 208 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick213 Rnd6 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in the 213th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick218 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 218 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick253 Rnd7 Josaiah Stewart
Circle this one: Josaiah Stewart at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
