Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureD
The Chargers cashed the board's mistake on Worthy: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chargers watched Xavier Worthy slide 41 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If Williams pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In No. 8 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick40 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at Round 2, Pick 8 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at the 72nd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
Circle this one: Quinn Ewers at pick 77 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick79 Rnd3 Brian Thomas Jr.
Somehow Brian Thomas Jr. was still sitting there in pick No. 79, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick108 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
They barely believed it either: Bucky Irving still on the board at the 108th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick145 Rnd5 Khyree Jackson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Khyree Jackson at slot 145 is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186 Rnd6 Darius Robinson
A reach on Darius Robinson in the Round 6 slot; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick229 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
