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

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Chargers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

Reaching for Nugent left real value on the table behind him. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In slot 31 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in Round 2, Pick 5 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter at pick 38 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Blake Corum
They liked Blake Corum enough to skip the value, taking him in the 69th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick105 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in No. 105 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110 Rnd4 Maason Smith
By-the-book stuff, Maason Smith at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at the 140th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Value said wait; Drake Nugent in pick No. 181 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick221 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nice patience on Nathaniel Watson, who had no business lasting to slot 221. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick225 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
A conviction pick on Dominique Hampton at Round 7, Pick 5 that the board grades a round light. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick253 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
No edge and no loss on LaDarius Henderson in the 253rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
