Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC
The Chargers worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

Whoever sat across the table from the Chargers should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

Bullock at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The Shipley reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 31st overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick40 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
No drama and no debate, Kris Jenkins went about where he belonged in the 40th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders in pick 41 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A tidy little value on Jackson Powers-Johnson in Round 2, Pick 24, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick62 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
No edge and no loss on Ruke Orhorhoro in pick No. 62; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
They paid sticker price for Payton Wilson in slot 67, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in No. 69 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick No. 93 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
A straight-up fair deal on Tykee Smith at slot 94, value and slot in agreement. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick99 Rnd3 Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt at the 99th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick106 Rnd4 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at pick 106 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick139 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
They talked themselves into Braelon Allen at No. 139, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick183 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in Round 6, Pick 8 is fair value, right on his grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
