Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB
More right than wrong for the Chiefs, and a B to prove it.

The Chiefs did not so much draft Wesley Williams as overpay for him, 62 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

That Reese pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
Mansoor Delane at pick No. 9 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick29 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a green-dot type in the middle, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick45 Rnd2 Zion Young
No edge and no loss on Zion Young in No. 45; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jonah Coleman
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jonah Coleman in the 74th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malik Benson
A big swing on Malik Benson at pick 109, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at slot 148 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick162 Rnd5 Nate Boerkircher
Nate Boerkircher is a better player than pick No. 162 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at pick 169 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick176 Rnd5 Reggie Virgil
The board had Reggie Virgil higher than slot 176, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick210 Rnd6 Josh Moten
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Moten. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick250 Rnd7 Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia slid further than he should have, and the Round 7 slot is lovely value for the quarterback. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Wesley Williams
Wesley Williams at No. 253 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
