Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall
D
ValueA+
NeedC
TradesF
FutureB
Larceny in pick No. 243 lands the Chargers a D, Siereveld and all. You build a draft on nights like this. Austin Siereveld had no business being available in the 243rd overall pick, and the Chargers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Owens II has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Jeremiah Smith
In No. 22 they get a difference-maker at receiver, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick38
Rnd2
Carter Smith
They will replay Carter Smith at pick No. 38 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick53
Rnd2
David Stone
David Stone at the 53rd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick55
Rnd2
KJ Bolden
Steal is underselling it; KJ Bolden at pick 55 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick75
Rnd3
Cam Coleman
Cam Coleman in the 75th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick76
Rnd3
Cayden Green
Cayden Green in slot 76 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick81
Rnd3
Zabien Brown
Zabien Brown at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick85
Rnd3
Duce Robinson
Duce Robinson in Round 3, Pick 21 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick86
Rnd3
Teitum Tuioti
They robbed the room for Teitum Tuioti here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88
Rnd3
Trevor Goosby
Trevor Goosby at the 88th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick99
Rnd3
Ahmad Hardy
A running back of that caliber at pick 99 is the definition of value, full stop. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jayden Maiava
No drama and no debate, Jayden Maiava went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick114
Rnd4
Dante Moore
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Dante Moore in No. 114, plain and simple. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick121
Rnd4
Jamari Johnson
They barely believed it either: Jamari Johnson still on the board at the 121st pick. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick123
Rnd4
Wyatt Young
You do not let a wide receiver like Wyatt Young reach slot 123 and blink. They did not. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick124
Rnd4
Justin Scott
Somehow Justin Scott was still sitting there in Round 4, Pick 24, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick164
Rnd5
John Henry Daley
Taking John Henry Daley in slot 164 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202
Rnd6
A'Mauri Washington
Circle this one: A'Mauri Washington at No. 202 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick227
Rnd7
Trevor Lauck
The board fumbled Trevor Lauck all the way to the 227th overall pick, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick230
Rnd7
Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper at the 230th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick231
Rnd7
Brice Pollock
They barely believed it either: Brice Pollock still on the board at Round 7, Pick 15. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick233
Rnd7
Bray Hubbard
Circle this one: Bray Hubbard at pick 233 is a fall that decides a draft. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick234
Rnd7
Kelley Jones
A cornerback of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick236
Rnd7
John Curry
They will replay John Curry at pick No. 236 for years; that is how good the value is. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick239
Rnd7
Ahmad Moten Sr.
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Ahmad Moten Sr. in pick 239, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick240
Rnd7
Mateen Ibirogba
Taking Mateen Ibirogba in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick241
Rnd7
Rasheem Biles
You do not let a linebacker like Rasheem Biles reach No. 241 and blink. They did not. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick243
Rnd7
Austin Siereveld
Austin Siereveld in Round 7, Pick 27 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244
Rnd7
Luke Montgomery
The board fumbled Luke Montgomery all the way to the 244th pick, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245
Rnd7
Will Heldt
Somehow Will Heldt was still sitting there in pick No. 245, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick247
Rnd7
Anthony Smith
Steal is underselling it; Anthony Smith at the 247th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick248
Rnd7
Omarion Miller
They robbed the room for Omarion Miller here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick249
Rnd7
Greg Johnson
Greg Johnson in pick 249 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick250
Rnd7
Elijah Paige
Elijah Paige in slot 250 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick251
Rnd7
Jyaire Hill
Jyaire Hill at the 251st overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
Pick252
Rnd7
Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick253
Rnd7
Devin McCuin
Devin McCuin at pick No. 253 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick254
Rnd7
Cooper Barkate
They robbed the room for Cooper Barkate here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick255
Rnd7
Ty Benefield
Ty Benefield at No. 255 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick256
Rnd7
Rueben Owens II
A reach on Rueben Owens II in Round 7, Pick 40; the board had better options right there. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick257
Rnd7
Walker Lyons
Circle this one: Walker Lyons at pick 257 is a fall that decides a draft. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
