Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Chargers let Simpson fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Jaylin Simpson slides to the 183rd overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Chargers did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick 5 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
By-the-book stuff, Chop Robinson at the 37th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Payton Wilson. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick105 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at the Round 4 slot is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick142 Rnd5 James Williams
James Williams in Round 5, Pick 6 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at slot 183 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
