Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
The Chargers let Flournoy fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Ryan Flournoy had no business being available in pick 225, and the Chargers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Hall Jr. has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 9th overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 27th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
By-the-book stuff, Kamari Lassiter at No. 37 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. in slot 69 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They paid sticker price for Braelon Allen in pick 105, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at Round 5, Pick 4 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
They took Jordan Jefferson at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick225 Rnd7 Ryan Flournoy
Circle this one: Ryan Flournoy at pick No. 225 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Nothing to complain about; Jalen Coker went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
