Larceny in Round 7, Pick 33 lands the Chargers a D, Hoover and all. The rest of the league will want that one back. Josh Hoover tumbling to the Chargers in No. 249 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The Chargers paired the rookies with proven help, Puka Nacua leading the way.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Matayo Uiagalelei
In the 18th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick22
Rnd1
Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa
In pick 22 they get the heartbeat of the defense, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick29
Rnd1
Carter Smith
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick49
Rnd2
Cayden Green
They barely believed it either: Cayden Green still on the board at No. 49. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick55
Rnd2
Will Echoles
Steal is underselling it; Will Echoles at slot 55 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick61
Rnd2
Duce Robinson
You do not let a wide receiver like Duce Robinson reach pick No. 61 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Dante Moore
Dante Moore at the 75th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76
Rnd3
Suntarine Perkins
Circle this one: Suntarine Perkins at Round 3, Pick 12 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick81
Rnd3
Teitum Tuioti
Teitum Tuioti at the 81st overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick86
Rnd3
PJ Williams
PJ Williams in No. 86 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick88
Rnd3
Ahmad Hardy
The board fumbled Ahmad Hardy all the way to slot 88, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92
Rnd3
Jamari Johnson
They robbed the room for Jamari Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick93
Rnd3
Dashawn Spears
Somehow Dashawn Spears was still sitting there in pick 93, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick97
Rnd3
KJ Duff
KJ Duff in Round 3, Pick 33 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick99
Rnd3
Kade Pieper
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kade Pieper in pick No. 99. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick100
Rnd3
Justin Scott
Taking Justin Scott in the 100th pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102
Rnd4
Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
They will replay Kenyatta Jackson Jr. at the 102nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103
Rnd4
Brice Pollock
A cornerback of that caliber at the 103rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick113
Rnd4
Rasheem Biles
Rasheem Biles in pick No. 113 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick117
Rnd4
A'Mauri Washington
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, A'Mauri Washington in pick 117, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123
Rnd4
Trevor Goosby
Trevor Goosby at slot 123 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick124
Rnd4
Trevor Lauck
Taking Trevor Lauck in No. 124 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125
Rnd4
Wyatt Young
They barely believed it either: Wyatt Young still on the board at the Round 4 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick128
Rnd4
Princewill Umanmielen
Princewill Umanmielen in Round 4, Pick 28 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick134
Rnd4
Kewan Lacy
Kewan Lacy at pick No. 134 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135
Rnd4
Austin Siereveld
Austin Siereveld in Round 4, Pick 35 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick138
Rnd4
Luke Montgomery
Somehow Luke Montgomery was still sitting there in the 138th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick159
Rnd5
Keon Sabb
Keon Sabb in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick161
Rnd5
Bear Alexander
The board fumbled Bear Alexander all the way to No. 161, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162
Rnd5
Peter Clarke
A tight end of that caliber at the 162nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick164
Rnd5
Kelley Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Kelley Jones reach pick 164 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick165
Rnd5
Walker Lyons
Walker Lyons at slot 165 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick167
Rnd5
Ahmad Moten Sr.
Circle this one: Ahmad Moten Sr. at slot 167 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174
Rnd5
Terrance Carter Jr.
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Terrance Carter Jr. in the 174th pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick175
Rnd5
Will Heldt
They robbed the room for Will Heldt here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189
Rnd6
LJ Martin
They will replay LJ Martin at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick194
Rnd6
Jyaire Hill
Steal is underselling it; Jyaire Hill at pick 194 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick200
Rnd6
Devin McCuin
Devin McCuin at No. 200 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick202
Rnd6
Mateen Ibirogba
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Mateen Ibirogba in pick No. 202, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick205
Rnd6
Anthony Smith
Circle this one: Anthony Smith at the 205th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick208
Rnd6
Darian Mensah
Darian Mensah in No. 208 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick214
Rnd6
Raylen Wilson
They barely believed it either: Raylen Wilson still on the board at Round 6, Pick 35. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick216
Rnd6
Raleek Brown
Raleek Brown in the 216th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick218
Rnd7
Evan Tengesdahl
Taking Evan Tengesdahl in slot 218 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick224
Rnd7
Corey Myrick
They robbed the room for Corey Myrick here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick232
Rnd7
Iapani Laloulu
Somehow Iapani Laloulu was still sitting there in the 232nd overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233
Rnd7
Greg Johnson
Greg Johnson at pick No. 233 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick234
Rnd7
Christian Alliegro

Pick240
Rnd7
Elijah Paige
Elijah Paige at Round 7, Pick 24 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick243
Rnd7
Cooper Barkate
They will replay Cooper Barkate at pick 243 for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick244
Rnd7
Xavier Lucas
Xavier Lucas in slot 244 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick246
Rnd7
Ezra Christensen
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 246 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick249
Rnd7
Josh Hoover
