Draft Grade — Chargers

FutureB-
The Chargers let King fall and pounced. Final grade: B+. Call it larceny. Kobe King sat on the board until pick No. 218, and the Chargers did not need to be asked twice. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Jordan Davis gives the group a proven body among the projects.
The cost of the Johnson reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
A straight-up fair deal on Kenneth Grant at Round 1, Pick 22, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick62
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
They let Colston Loveland come to them and pounced at the 62nd pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick86
Rnd3
Tez Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Tez Johnson at pick No. 86, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123
Rnd4
Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill at the 123rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick157
Rnd5
Barrett Carter
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Barrett Carter in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick179
Rnd6
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at No. 179 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
Fair-plus on Jordan Hancock, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick208
Rnd6
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at pick 208 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick218
Rnd7
Kobe King
Kobe King in pick 218 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick253
Rnd7
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick No. 253 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
