Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Chargers were there to profit. Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, the No. 198 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 7 slot.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The skill positions did well by the weekend.
Their trades came out a wash either way.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 5th pick they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
By-the-book stuff, Kamari Lassiter at slot 37 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Payton Wilson in Round 3, Pick 5 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Michael Hall Jr. reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
The board had Trey Benson higher than pick 111, and the running back fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Circle this one: Justin Rogers at pick No. 223 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
They robbed the room for Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
