Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall
D+
ValueA+
NeedC
TradesF
FutureA
Young should have been long gone. The Chargers pounced, and earned a D+. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Wyatt Young, Round 7, Pick 29, roughly 195 picks past where he belonged. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D+.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.
Pick Analysis
Pick55
Rnd2
Matayo Uiagalelei
Matayo Uiagalelei at the 55th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick65
Rnd3
Carter Smith
They robbed the room for Carter Smith here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75
Rnd3
Cayden Green
Cayden Green at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick86
Rnd3
Teitum Tuioti
A edge rusher of that caliber at pick No. 86 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87
Rnd3
Will Echoles
Will Echoles in slot 87 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88
Rnd3
Ellis Robinson IV
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Ellis Robinson IV in the 88th overall pick, plain and simple. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jayden Maiava
By-the-book stuff, Jayden Maiava at Round 3, Pick 36 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick101
Rnd4
Kade Pieper
A quiet steal in No. 101: Kade Pieper for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123
Rnd4
Duce Robinson
You do not let a wide receiver like Duce Robinson reach pick 123 and blink. They did not. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick124
Rnd4
Zabien Brown
Circle this one: Zabien Brown at the 124th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick139
Rnd5
Chris Cole
Chris Cole at Round 5, Pick 1 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick140
Rnd5
A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in slot 140 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick141
Rnd5
Trevor Goosby
They will replay Trevor Goosby at No. 141 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick144
Rnd5
Jadan Baugh
Taking Jadan Baugh in pick No. 144 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick162
Rnd5
Justin Scott
They barely believed it either: Justin Scott still on the board at the 162nd pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164
Rnd5
Bear Alexander
Steal is underselling it; Bear Alexander at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172
Rnd5
Brice Pollock
Brice Pollock in No. 172 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick173
Rnd5
Jamari Johnson
Somehow Jamari Johnson was still sitting there in the 173rd overall pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick175
Rnd5
Devin McCuin
The board fumbled Devin McCuin all the way to slot 175, and they scooped it up. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick178
Rnd5
Rasheem Biles
The board fumbled Rasheem Biles all the way to pick No. 178, and they scooped it up. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick181
Rnd6
Austin Siereveld
You do not let an offensive lineman like Austin Siereveld reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick194
Rnd6
Trevor Lauck
Trevor Lauck in Round 6, Pick 15 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick202
Rnd6
Tae Johnson
Tae Johnson in the 202nd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick206
Rnd6
Luke Montgomery
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Luke Montgomery in pick 206, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick218
Rnd7
Bray Hubbard
Bray Hubbard at the 218th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick227
Rnd7
Will Heldt
Somehow Will Heldt was still sitting there in No. 227, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick230
Rnd7
Keon Sabb
Circle this one: Keon Sabb at the 230th pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick233
Rnd7
Kelley Jones
They will replay Kelley Jones at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick234
Rnd7
Ahmad Moten Sr.
Ahmad Moten Sr. in slot 234 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick242
Rnd7
Anthony Smith
Anthony Smith at Round 7, Pick 26 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245
Rnd7
Wyatt Young
They robbed the room for Wyatt Young here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick248
Rnd7
Evan Tengesdahl
They barely believed it either: Evan Tengesdahl still on the board at pick 248. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253
Rnd7
LJ Martin
Taking LJ Martin in pick No. 253 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick254
Rnd7
Greg Johnson
Greg Johnson at slot 254 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick257
Rnd7
Walker Lyons
Steal is underselling it; Walker Lyons at No. 257 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
