The Chargers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 105th overall pick regardless, 54 picks early. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Trice falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.5 · Pick 5 · Rome Odunze · WR · rank 11
In the 5th pick they get a true top target at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 22
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 37, where Bralen Trice graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 89
They left a pile of value on the table to take TreVeyon Henderson this early at the Round 3 slot. The roster fit checks out.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Edefuan Ulofoshio · LB · rank 159
This one needs a full-page explanation: Edefuan Ulofoshio in the 105th overall pick, miles early. A minor itch, scratched.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Cedric Johnson · DE-EDGE · rank 163
Value said wait; Cedric Johnson in pick 142 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Michael Barrett · LB · rank 193
A reach on Michael Barrett in slot 183; the board had better options right there. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R7.6 · Pick 226 · Fentrell Cypress II · CB · rank 211
Nice patience on Fentrell Cypress II, who had no business lasting to No. 226. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
