Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Chiefs for Coleman: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jonah Coleman had no business being available in slot 109, and the Chiefs did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The Graves pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In No. 9 they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick29 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
Chris Brazzell II in slot 29 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick40 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
No edge and no loss on D'Angelo Ponds in pick 40; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick74 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jonah Coleman
They will replay Jonah Coleman at the 109th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kaleb Proctor
Value said wait; Kaleb Proctor in Round 5, Pick 8 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at the 169th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick176 Rnd5 Matt Gulbin
They paid sticker price for Matt Gulbin in pick No. 176, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick210 Rnd6 Zavion Thomas
By-the-book stuff, Zavion Thomas at slot 210 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
