Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall F
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureF
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a F for the Chargers.

The Jayson Jones selection is the head-turner. The Chargers reached 148 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. A weekend to file away and forget, and an F to match.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Whatever Jayden Daniels becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Pearsall. The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with tight end still staring back at them.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
They paid sticker price for Joe Alt in the 5th overall pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick 8 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick11 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
A clean, defensible pick in the 11th pick with a little surplus value in Laiatu Latu. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at No. 39 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks at pick No. 43 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
No edge and no loss on Kris Jenkins in the 56th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jermaine Burton
A straight-up fair deal on Jermaine Burton at pick 58, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II at No. 67 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in the 73rd pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick108 Rnd4 Ajani Cornelius
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ajani Cornelius this early at the Round 4 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick145 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
No drama and no debate, Malik Mustapha went about where he belonged in pick No. 145. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick186 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty slipping to slot 186 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214 Rnd6 Khris Bogle
They jumped the gun on Khris Bogle, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
They reached into another round for Jordan Jefferson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd6 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jayson Jones
Jayson Jones at pick No. 221 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick229 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
A reach for J.J. Weaver in pick 229; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick240 Rnd7 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at the 240th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick256 Rnd7 Isaiah Davis
A big swing on Isaiah Davis at Round 7, Pick 36, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
