Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 225th overall pick lands the Chargers a B, Johnson and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Cornelius Johnson tumbling to the Chargers in slot 225 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Reaching for Guerendo left real value on the table behind him. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at pick No. 37 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Payton Wilson at slot 69. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick105 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They went early on Blake Fisher in the 105th pick, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick110 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Isaac Guerendo well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
They did well to land Jarrian Jones in No. 140, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick181 Rnd6 AJ Barner
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing AJ Barner in pick 181. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick225 Rnd7 Cornelius Johnson
They will replay Cornelius Johnson at Round 7, Pick 5 for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick253 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
The board had Michael Barrett higher than pick No. 253, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
