Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers let Hadden fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

When a board-topper like Kamal Hadden slides to pick No. 253, you do not overthink it, and the Chargers did not.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The cost of the Johnson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 5 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A tidy little value on Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick69 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at No. 69 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick105 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at Round 4, Pick 5 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at slot 110 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
No drama and no debate, Trevor Keegan went about where he belonged in pick 140. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick181 Rnd6 Trente Jones
Trente Jones in the 181st overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick225 Rnd7 Anthony Gould
Steal is underselling it; Anthony Gould at the 225th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
