The Chargers went off the board in a big way for Isaac Guerendo, 45 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Troy Franklin and all.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Troy Franklin · WR · rank 25
In pick No. 12 they get a matchup problem out wide, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Quinyon Mitchell · CB · rank 31
Fair-plus on Quinyon Mitchell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Trey Benson · RB · rank 68
No edge and no loss on Trey Benson in the 69th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 89
They liked Sedrick Van Pran enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 76. The roster fit checks out.
R4.20 · Pick 120 · Javon Foster · OT · rank 129
Javon Foster at Round 4, Pick 20 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 152
They paid a round early for Theo Johnson in the 139th pick, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · AJ Barner · TE · rank 203
A real head-scratcher, AJ Barner in No. 183 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Jordan Jefferson · DT · rank 187
Jordan Jefferson at the 189th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.23 · Pick 198 · Jaylen Harrell · DE-EDGE · rank 211
A conviction pick on Jaylen Harrell at pick 198 that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · J.J. Weaver · LB-EDGE · rank 245
J.J. Weaver in the 223rd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.10 · Pick 230 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 275
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Isaac Guerendo. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.36 · Pick 256 · Mark Perry · S · rank 263
They paid sticker price for Mark Perry in pick No. 256, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
