FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Chargers and McCaffrey: B. Thirty-one other rooms let Luke McCaffrey slide, and the Chargers were the ones holding the card at pick No. 181. Highway robbery. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
The cost of the Guerendo reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In the 5th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41
Rnd2
Graham Barton
A tidy bit of business in slot 41, where Graham Barton graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick69
Rnd3
Edgerrin Cooper
The board fumbled Edgerrin Cooper all the way to the 69th pick, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick91
Rnd3
Caelen Carson
No drama and no debate, Caelen Carson went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 28. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105
Rnd4
DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
A wild overpay on Isaac Guerendo in No. 110, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140
Rnd5
Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in pick No. 140 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181
Rnd6
Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in pick 181 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in Round 6, Pick 44 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick225
Rnd7
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at slot 225 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick253
Rnd7
Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony at pick 253 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
