Los Angeles Chargers

The Chargers turned the phones into found money: B.

by Geminiking · 2024 NFL Draft · 12 picks · 2 steals · 6 reaches

Future B

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Blake Corum at the Round 1 slot, a reach of 57 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

On value alone, Muhammad III makes the weekend a net positive. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.14 · Pick 14 · Blake Corum · RB · rank 71
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a lead back with juice, though the board says they badly overpaid.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Jermaine Burton · WR · rank 64
They paid sticker price for Jermaine Burton in pick 65, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Ruke Orhorhoro · DT · rank 80
No drama and no debate, Ruke Orhorhoro went about where he belonged in slot 76. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Luke Lachey · TE · rank 107
A real head-scratcher, Luke Lachey in the 78th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.1 · Pick 101 · Tory Horton · WR · rank 110
Tory Horton at No. 101 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Justin Rogers · DL · rank 134
A big swing on Justin Rogers at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.2 · Pick 138 · Max Melton · CB · rank 120
Max Melton in the 138th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.13 · Pick 149 · Nehemiah Pritchett · CB · rank 142
Good price on Nehemiah Pritchett in pick 149, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.28 · Pick 164 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 185
Theo Johnson in the 164th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
R6.15 · Pick 190 · Brandon Coleman · OL · rank 202
They went early on Brandon Coleman in pick No. 190, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.17 · Pick 192 · Keith Randolph Jr. · DL-EDGE · rank 197
Keith Randolph Jr. at Round 6, Pick 17 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.13 · Pick 233 · Moose Muhammad III · WR · rank 190
Circle this one: Moose Muhammad III at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
