Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Chargers a B-.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Chargers did exactly that with Jawhar Jordan in the Round 4 slot. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The Jacobs pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick No. 5 they get a matchup weapon at tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
Value said wait; Sedrick Van Pran in Round 2, Pick 16 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick69 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
Taking T.J. Tampa in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
A tidy little value on Johnny Wilson in the 79th pick, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jawhar Jordan
They reached a country mile for Jawhar Jordan at slot 125, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
This one needs a full-page explanation: Braelon Allen in pick 128, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick139 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They went early on Theo Johnson in the Round 5 slot, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick183 Rnd6 Javon Baker
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Baker. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick223 Rnd7 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at pick 223 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick242 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Zion Logue at the 242nd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick256 Rnd7 Stefon Thompson
No drama and no debate, Stefon Thompson went about where he belonged in the 256th pick. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
