josh709 DRAFTING FOR THEChargers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall
B-

FutureB-
The Chargers kept it disciplined and banked a B-. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jaeden Roberts, 29 picks early at the 86th pick. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Thieneman pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Kayden McDonald
In the 22nd overall pick they get an anchor for the defensive front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick55
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick86
Rnd3
Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at slot 86 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123
Rnd4
Michael Trigg
A tidy little value on Michael Trigg in Round 4, Pick 23, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick202
Rnd6
Tristan Leigh
A reach for Tristan Leigh in No. 202; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
