Los Angeles Chargers

Nobody dealt better than the Chargers this weekend: A-.

Future A

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Isaac Guerendo, 34 picks early at Round 7, Pick 3. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They banked enough surplus on Murphy II to cover a lot of smaller sins.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 22
In slot 25 they get a building block for the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · T'Vondre Sweat · DT · rank 58
T'Vondre Sweat at pick No. 37 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Byron Murphy II · DL · rank 21
The board fumbled Byron Murphy II all the way to Round 2, Pick 9, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Sedrick Van Pran · C · rank 89
They reached a country mile for Sedrick Van Pran at the 69th pick, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 78
A quiet steal in the 91st overall pick: Christian Mahogany for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.6 · Pick 106 · Marshawn Kneeland · DE-EDGE · rank 103
Marshawn Kneeland at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 151
Theo Johnson at No. 139 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · AJ Barner · TE · rank 198
AJ Barner in slot 168 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Curtis Jacobs · LB · rank 183
Curtis Jacobs at the 183rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 257
They talked themselves into Isaac Guerendo at pick 223, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.36 · Pick 256 · Demorie Tate · CB · rank 275
A big swing on Demorie Tate at Round 7, Pick 36, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
