Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chargers.

The Mycah Pittman selection is the head-turner. The Chargers reached 128 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup weapon at tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
A conviction pick on Kris Jenkins at the 37th pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at slot 69 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Fair-plus on Blake Fisher, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick142 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
This one needs a full-page explanation: Michael Barrett in pick No. 142, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick183 Rnd6 Chad Lindberg
Chad Lindberg in No. 183 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick226 Rnd7 Mycah Pittman
A big swing on Mycah Pittman at pick 226, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
