The trade table was a mismatch, and the Chargers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

Landing Liufau that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Creed Humphrey gives the group a proven body among the projects. The Irving reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.32 · Pick 32 · Ladd McConkey · WR · rank 34
In pick No. 32 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Kamari Lassiter · CB · rank 41
Kamari Lassiter in the 37th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Kris Jenkins · DL-EDGE · rank 50
They read the board right and Kris Jenkins was the payoff at pick 64. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.17 · Pick 81 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 90
Bucky Irving at the 81st pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Jalen McMillan · WR · rank 99
They did well to land Jalen McMillan in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.5 · Pick 105 · Braelon Allen · RB · rank 106
Braelon Allen at No. 105 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
R4.10 · Pick 110 · Brenden Rice · WR · rank 96
Brenden Rice slipping to Round 4, Pick 10 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.4 · Pick 140 · Sataoa Laumea · OT · rank 131
The board had Sataoa Laumea higher than slot 140, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 166
They let Marist Liufau come to them and pounced at Round 6, Pick 6. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R6.17 · Pick 192 · Jha'Quan Jackson · WR · rank 179
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jha'Quan Jackson at pick No. 192 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.22 · Pick 197 · Johnny Dixon · CB · rank 190
Johnny Dixon in No. 197 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.33 · Pick 253 · Josh Proctor · S · rank 244
Josh Proctor is a better player than the Round 7 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
