Jin DRAFTING FOR THEChargers

Draft Grade — Chargers

FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Chargers: B. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named edge rusher, a need the Chargers walked right past.
The Powers-Johnson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Davis.
A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Brock Bowers
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brock Bowers. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick37
Rnd2
Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at the 37th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick47
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick69
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Jeremiah Trotter Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick105
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
A tidy little value on Dominick Puni in No. 105, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick142
Rnd5
Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube in Round 5, Pick 6 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick183
Rnd6
Bru McCoy
No drama and no debate, Bru McCoy went about where he belonged in slot 183. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226
Rnd7
Isaiah Davis
Nice patience on Isaiah Davis, who had no business lasting to pick 226. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
