Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureA
McCormick should have been long gone. The Chargers pounced, and earned a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Mason McCormick had no business being available in No. 183, and the Chargers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They will need Eichenberg to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The veteran additions, DaVon Hamilton chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They paid sticker price for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 1 slot, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at slot 37 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick48 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They jumped the gun on Xavier Worthy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Nice patience on Adisa Isaac, who had no business lasting to the 59th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton at Round 3, Pick 5 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher in No. 73 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick86 Rnd3 Trey Benson
They paid up for Trey Benson at pick No. 86 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick106 Rnd4 DJ James
They barely believed it either: DJ James still on the board at pick 106. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They went early on Tommy Eichenberg in the 128th pick, and the value did not follow. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick139 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
A premium they did not need to pay, Brennan Jackson a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick183 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
They will replay Mason McCormick at pick 183 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
They paid a round early for Trevin Wallace in slot 223, more than the board wanted. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick256 Rnd7 Logan Lee
A quiet steal in the 256th overall pick: Logan Lee for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
