Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
Larceny in pick 252 lands the Chargers a B, Kight and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Amari Kight, Round 7, Pick 38, roughly 41 picks past where he belonged. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. They will need Nesbit to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Isaiah Bond
In the 20th pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Shavon Revel Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick84 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They did well to land Quinshon Judkins in slot 84, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 Shemar Stewart
Nice patience on Shemar Stewart, who had no business lasting to the 121st overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jordan Hancock
Taking Jordan Hancock in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick181 Rnd6 Bryson Nesbit
Bryson Nesbit at Round 6, Pick 6 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham at pick No. 196 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick213 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
They took Shilo Sanders at par in No. 213, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick225 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy is a better player than pick No. 225 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick252 Rnd7 Amari Kight
They barely believed it either: Amari Kight still on the board at the 252nd overall pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
