Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Chargers a B+.

The war room fell hard for Bryce Foster, and it showed at Round 6, Pick 8: 38 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

The DJ Moore pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 12th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in No. 37 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
They let Kingsley Suamataia come to them and pounced at Round 3, Pick 5. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
They went early on Roman Wilson in the Round 3 slot, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braelon Allen. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick113 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at pick No. 113 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick142 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
They jumped the gun on Ben Sinnott, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick183 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bryce Foster well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick226 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
Demani Richardson at No. 226 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
