faceoff4 DRAFTING FOR THEChargers

Draft Grade — Chargers

Good, not great, for the Chargers: B. For all the boxes ticked, the Chargers skipped the loudest one: interior defensive lineman is exactly as bare as it was.
Williams falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In pick 5 they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Kamari Lassiter
The board had Kamari Lassiter higher than pick No. 37, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia slid further than he should have, and No. 69 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105
Rnd4
Donovan Edwards
They paid sticker price for Donovan Edwards in Round 4, Pick 5, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick142
Rnd5
James Williams
Value with a capital V on James Williams in the 142nd overall pick, a genuine coup. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick183
Rnd6
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in the 183rd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226
Rnd7
Omar Speights
A quiet steal in slot 226: Omar Speights for less than the market said. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
