Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers robbed the room for McLachlan. Final grade: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Tanner McLachlan, the No. 207 name on the board, stolen at pick 225.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Every board in the league had Wilson lower, and that gap is the story.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at the 37th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick 69 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick105 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at No. 105 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick110 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
They took Mekhi Wingo at par in slot 110, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
They did well to land Jarrian Jones in pick No. 140, just ahead of his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick181 Rnd6 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy in the Round 6 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick225 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
Steal is underselling it; Tanner McLachlan at the 225th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick253 Rnd7 Josh Wallace
Nothing to complain about; Josh Wallace went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
