The Chargers' one glaring miss is interior defensive lineman, a need they left exactly as they found it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.
They are betting Wright proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
A straight-up fair deal on Olumuyiwa Fashanu at No. 9, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Tyler Nubin at Round 2, Pick 5 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kris Jenkins. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Fair-plus on Johnny Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
A real head-scratcher, Dallin Holker in pick No. 127 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Jaylen Wright in the 142nd pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
