Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Chargers a B-.

The Darius Robinson selection is the head-turner. The Chargers reached 55 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Jenkins falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 6 they get a double-digit-sack hope, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at the 38th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick70 Rnd3 Kris Jenkins
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 70, where Kris Jenkins graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick113 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
Fair-plus on Roman Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Darius Robinson this early at the Round 5 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick159 Rnd5 Cody Schrader
Value said wait; Cody Schrader in No. 159 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick184 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson slipping to the 184th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick227 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
They talked themselves into Sam Hartman at slot 227, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
