Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Chargers a B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Chargers spent No. 226 on Taylor Upshaw, a name the board had a full 162 spots lower.

Wilson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the 5th pick they get a red-zone target to build around. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
They let Amarius Mims come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Value with a capital V on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in Round 3, Pick 5, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick105 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
They will replay Roman Wilson at pick No. 105 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick142 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
They paid a round early for Braelon Allen in No. 142, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick183 Rnd6 Chad Lindberg
Chad Lindberg in slot 183 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick226 Rnd7 Taylor Upshaw
A wild overpay on Taylor Upshaw in pick 226, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
