1000% agree, would’ve been a great draft if we did something smarter with our first pick.Justin Herbert - C
One of the worst picks we’ve had in a long time. I don’t see what the Chargers see in this guy, I am not confident that he is our star QB.
Kenneth Murray - A
A great football player, that can come in and make an immediate impact. I hear he’s a great leader and all around good dude, so that’s all a plus too.
Joshua Kelly - A
My favorite pick of this draft, Lynn has a great eye for running backs, love the way he runs, and having him in rotation with Eckeler and Justin Jackson, super excited to see our ground game.
Joe Reed - TBD
I haven’t seen much from this guy, but his highlights show great hands, I think he hasn’t dropped a pass over 20+ yards in his entire collegiate career, if that’s true than great.
Alohi Gilman - No idea
This is a special teams signing.
K.J. Hill - A-
I think K.J. is a steal, the only thing is that he is probably the slowest receiver of this draft, but otherwise he looks great, and definitely has a shot as our WR3.
Overall: B-
fukk Justin Herbert
I feel about the same, when I saw Wirfs and Winfield Jr. Fall to our picks, I was just glad we didn't overthink shyt and just grab 'em. Johnson from Mommy looks like he'll be a steal, especially with Evans/Godwin/Gronk keeping everybody honest, so he'll be able to advantage of the nickel or some corner who's covering him. I wish we could of gotten another pass rusher cause after this year, we're losing two of Shaq/JPP/Suh.Bucs
1. Wirfs (OT)- B . Has all the tools, but his best position might be on the inside which is why Im giving this pick a B vs a B+. I also wish he was better suited for the Left side. Overall, we needed help on the OL and got it. Wasn't a big fan of losing our 4th rd pick, but the rest of the NFL knew what we needed and was prolly trying to jump in front of us to get him.
2. Winfield (S)- A. I love this pick. Dude is a baller. Day 1 starter I think. 7 picks as a Sr and can lay the wood.
3. Vaughn (RB)- C. Not blown away by this pick, but what he did behind Vandys line vs The Sec is impressive. Might end up a nice change of pace back for us, but maybe we could have drafted that later?
4. Johnson (WR) - B+ . Godwin clone w/ a lil less speed. Our scouting dept has done a great job at the Wr Position, so I love this pick.
5. Davis (DL)- A . Love his tape and his measurables and his production. Dude was a steal. Plus hes going to be practicing every day with some fukking DOGS.
6 and 7. LB and RB. (D) . Didn't think we needed another LB and he had two ACL injuries. Didn't have tons of production and his measurables doesn't jump off the screen at you either. But as I typed this weve done a really good job of scouting LBers, so they might see something I don't. That RB pick screams we did this for Brady. Small with "only" 4.42. speed. Havent watched film yet, but small and 4.42 doesn't impress me when we have 220+ pound backs running under that. Maybe his film shows a different gear, that a 40 time doesn't. But at the end of the day no one really expects much from 7th rd picks.
Being that 7th Rders aren't weighed the same as the early picks and I think we got 2 steals in the middle of the draft Imma give this draft an overall grade of B+. We got 2 day 1 starters. A possible nice back up RB and two valuable pick ups at positions well need to find replacements in within a yr, or 2.

Hopefully we win the Bowl this year cause next year, we got a lot of spots to address next off season and we might have to look at a new coaching staff if Leftwich and Bowles keep doing well.
