Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chargers: B.

The Chargers spent real capital to be 61 picks early on Zion Logue, and the board is going to hold them to it.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Barrett steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 5th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Value with a capital V on Troy Fautanu in slot 37, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick69 Rnd3 Blake Corum
They paid up for Blake Corum at pick No. 69 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick105 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
The board had Dominick Puni higher than the 105th overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick110 Rnd4 Malik Washington
They let Malik Washington come to them and pounced at Round 4, Pick 10. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick140 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They took Trevor Keegan at par in pick 140, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick181 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick225 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Zion Logue at pick No. 225 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
You do not let a linebacker like Michael Barrett reach the 253rd overall pick and blink. They did not. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
