Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Chargers this weekend: D.

The Chargers did not so much draft Mycah Pittman as overpay for him, 128 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
By-the-book stuff, Kris Jenkins at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at pick 69 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick74 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in slot 74 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick96 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Nothing to complain about; Sedrick Van Pran went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick105 Rnd4 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at the 105th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick142 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
A wild overpay on Joe Milton III in the 142nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick145 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in the 145th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick155 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
A big swing on Michael Barrett at pick No. 155, well ahead of any board in the building. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at pick 183 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226 Rnd7 Mycah Pittman
Mycah Pittman in No. 226 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
