Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Chargers found their guy under center in McCarthy: B+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jaylin Simpson slide, and the Chargers were the ones holding the card at pick No. 225. Highway robbery. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

J.J. McCarthy is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick No. 5 they get a security blanket over the middle. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get their quarterback of the future, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at slot 37 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at pick 75 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick105 Rnd4 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at the 105th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick110 Rnd4 Renardo Green
Renardo Green in pick No. 110 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick140 Rnd5 James Williams
James Williams slipping to No. 140 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick181 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
By-the-book stuff, Fabien Lovett at the 181st overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jaylin Simpson
They barely believed it either: Jaylin Simpson still on the board at the Round 7 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick253 Rnd7 Keaton Bills
Nice patience on Keaton Bills, who had no business lasting to the Round 7 slot. The roster fit checks out.
