Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Chargers.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Chargers left edge rusher untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Jones steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the Round 1 slot they get a moveable chess piece at tight end at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Troy Franklin in pick No. 37. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Junior Colson
By-the-book stuff, Junior Colson at slot 69 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick106 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick 106 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Nice patience on Jarrian Jones, who had no business lasting to No. 139. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick183 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
Value with a capital V on LaDarius Henderson in Round 6, Pick 8, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Tanor Bortolini
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tanor Bortolini. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick256 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in the 256th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
