Draft Grade — Chargers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Chargers bled value on every deal, hence the B-.

The Chargers lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They will answer for taking DT-EDGE early while interior defensive lineman and quarterback went begging. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In pick No. 30 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
No edge and no loss on Bralen Trice in Round 2, Pick 5; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick62 Rnd2 D.J. James
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on D.J. James. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Josh Newton
Josh Newton slipping to slot 69 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick73 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in the 73rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick92 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A want over a need in the Round 3 slot: Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE while interior defensive lineman and quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick105 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Nice patience on Zak Zinter, who had no business lasting to No. 105. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick142 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They paid sticker price for Theo Johnson in the 142nd pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick183 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at slot 183 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick226 Rnd7 Marcus Harris
No drama and no debate, Marcus Harris went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
