The Chargers did not so much draft Mycah Pittman as overpay for him, 128 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.5 · Pick 5 · Brock Bowers · TE · rank 6
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. A real need, handled.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 44
By-the-book stuff, Kris Jenkins at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Roman Wilson · WR · rank 82
Roman Wilson at pick 69 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Blake Corum · RB · rank 73
Blake Corum in slot 74 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
R3.33 · Pick 96 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 90
Nothing to complain about; Sedrick Van Pran went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · LaDarius Henderson · OT · rank 163
LaDarius Henderson at the 105th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 164
A wild overpay on Joe Milton III in the 142nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R5.9 · Pick 145 · Frank Gore Jr. · RB · rank 171
Frank Gore Jr. in the 145th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
R5.19 · Pick 155 · Michael Barrett · LB · rank 183
A big swing on Michael Barrett at pick No. 155, well ahead of any board in the building. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Jaylen Harrell · DE-EDGE · rank 201
Jaylen Harrell at pick 183 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.6 · Pick 226 · Mycah Pittman · WR · rank 354
Mycah Pittman in No. 226 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
