Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Grand theft in slot 188: the Chargers steal Simpson and grade out a B+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jaylin Simpson slide, and the Chargers were the ones holding the card at the 188th pick. Highway robbery. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

They will need Murphy to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
Nothing to complain about; Malik Nabers went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They took Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at par in Round 3, Pick 5, which is nothing to complain about. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick76 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover in pick 76 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at pick No. 88 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at slot 110 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Taking Brenden Rice in the Round 4 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Audric Estime
Steal is underselling it; Audric Estime at the 123rd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy at the 128th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd5 James Williams
The board had James Williams higher than the Round 5 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick145 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 145th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at pick No. 147 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
The board fumbled Jaylin Simpson all the way to slot 188, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Cornelius Johnson
You do not let a wide receiver like Cornelius Johnson reach pick 225 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick248 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Circle this one: Frank Gore Jr. at No. 248 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick253 Rnd7 Carter Bradley
They reached into another round for Carter Bradley, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
