Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs won the night they stopped Phillips from sliding. Grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chiefs watched Andru Phillips slide 40 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Ladd McConkey
In the 32nd pick they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They will replay Keon Coleman at Round 2, Pick 32 for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick95 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson slid further than he should have, and slot 95 is lovely value for the cornerback. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick158 Rnd5 Andru Phillips
Andru Phillips in the 158th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick168 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Fair-plus on Luke McCaffrey, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Value with a capital V on Jaheim Bell in pick No. 172, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus at No. 255 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
