Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall
B+
ValueB-
NeedA-
TradesA+
FutureB-
The Chargers turned the phones into found money: B+. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but AJ Barner at slot 140 is 32 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In Round 1, Pick 6 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
They went early on Kris Jenkins in No. 37, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick47
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at pick No. 47 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
They let Kamren Kinchens come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick105
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
They took Braelon Allen at par in the 105th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick118
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 118th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick140
Rnd5
AJ Barner
AJ Barner in pick No. 140 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick225
Rnd7
JD Bertrand
A tidy little value on JD Bertrand in No. 225, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
