Grade: A+
In the first draft of the Jim Harbaugh era, the Chargers left with a bounty of my favorite prospects in this year's class. A lot of Chargers fans were upset at their round 1 selection of Joe Alt, OT out of Notre Dame, but Harbaugh is sending a clear message that they're going to play smash mouth, physical football which is a direct antithesis to the previous regime. I know people wanted a receiver, but this offensive line is shaping out to be a top 5 unit, giving time for Herbert to scan the field and locate the receivers they do have. Of course, fans didn't have to wait long for help in the passing game, as the Chargers selected route running phenom out of Georgia, Ladd McConkey to kick off day 2. The Mad Ladd will be a great safety valve for Herbert that will keep them on schedule with the offensive play sequencing. Wrapping up day 2, they selected the best LB in this class, Junior Colson out of Michigan. Fresh off of being a key contributor for Harbaugh's championship winning Michigan team, Colson was clearly well sought after by him. They continued into day 3 by adding good depth and a rotational DL player in Justin Eboigbe. Then Kimani Vidal was one of my favorite backs in this class and they took him at least two rounds later than he should have gone. They finished the weekend by taking some fliers on a pair of talented receivers in the 7th round. All in all, this was an outstanding graph for Harbaugh to implant his identity of the team and gain some ground against the Chiefs.
