Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Chargers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Kaimon Rucker at Round 3, Pick 22 regardless, 62 picks early. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Giddens. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Mike Green
In No. 22 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Deone Walker
A real head-scratcher, Deone Walker in pick 55 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kaimon Rucker
Value said wait; Kaimon Rucker in the 86th overall pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
They reached a country mile for Tyler Baron at the 125th pick, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jake Briningstool
A reach on Jake Briningstool in slot 158; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick181 Rnd6 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson at pick No. 181 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick199 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
Steal is underselling it; DJ Giddens at No. 199 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Shemar James
This one needs a full-page explanation: Shemar James in Round 6, Pick 33, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jeremy Crawshaw
Jeremy Crawshaw at the 214th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
No edge and no loss on Jaylin Smith in pick 256; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
