Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Chargers a B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Chargers started one anyway for Jasheen Davis, 108 picks ahead of schedule. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Marks pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
A clean, defensible pick in the 22nd overall pick with a little surplus value in Kenneth Grant. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A straight-up fair deal on Cam Skattebo at the 105th pick, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 David Walker
They left a pile of value on the table to take David Walker this early at No. 145. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
No edge and no loss on Pat Bryant in pick 149; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick159 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Good price on Nick Nash in pick No. 159, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at the 177th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick183 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cobee Bryant. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
No drama and no debate, Jack Kiser went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick215 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at Round 6, Pick 37 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick220 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
A reasonable price with a little left over, R.J. Mickens in pick No. 220. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick235 Rnd7 Barryn Sorrell
A wild overpay on Barryn Sorrell in the 235th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jasheen Davis
Jasheen Davis at pick 253 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick256 Rnd7 Woody Marks
A running back of that caliber at No. 256 is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
