Drogemeyer says the Chargers don't need to add a tight end high in the draft because their room is set at the top, with Ronde Gadsden as the primary receiving tight end and Charlie Kohler as the move/blocking tight end who gets more receiving chances than before.

Each one is scored on its own against the published methodology. A pundit naming several outcomes is graded on each, not on all-or-nothing.
Oronde Gadsden II to be 1st on the depth chart
“a tight end room that's going to be very effective, with a Ronde Gatson as your main receiving tight end”
Not settled yet. This is graded once the season it describes has finished.
Charlie Kolar to be 2nd on the depth chart
“Charlie Calder who's gonna be your move tight end, who's gonna be that, you know, blocking tight end and who's gonna get a couple more opportunities in the receiving game than he had in previous years”
Not settled yet. This is graded once the season it describes has finished.
