Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureA+
Good, not great, for the Chiefs: B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Josh Proctor at the 203rd pick is 92 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Alexander.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 25 they get a difference-maker at receiver, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick89 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick167 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at pick No. 167 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in No. 171 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Zy Alexander
A tidy bit of business in the 175th overall pick, where Zy Alexander graded well above the range. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
A reach on Jase McClellan in the Round 6 slot; the board had better options right there. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
This one needs a full-page explanation: Josh Proctor in the Round 6 slot, miles early. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick243 Rnd7 Turner Corcoran
A premium they did not need to pay, Turner Corcoran a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
Hayden Hatten at the 246th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
