The Chargers entered the 2026 NFL Draft with just five picks. However, by Friday night, general manager Joe Hortiz had transformed that limited capital into a deeper roster of nine total selections through a series of trades.

In the second round, the Bolts traded the 55th overall pick to the Patriots. In exchange, they moved down to No. 63 and picked up a fourth-rounder (No. 131) and a sixth-rounder (No. 202).

Shortly after, Hortiz swung another trade, sending the 86th overall pick (Round 3) to the Browns. This move netted them No. 105 (Round 4), No. 145 (Round 5), and No. 206 (Round 6).
