Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Chiefs: B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jawhar Jordan, 27 picks early at the 175th overall pick.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Perry.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In slot 28 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
They paid up for Payton Wilson at the 60th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in pick 91 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick128 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington at the 128th pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick161 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
A slide stopped in pick No. 161, with Keith Randolph Jr. worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Julian Pearl
They paid a round early for Julian Pearl in the Round 5 slot, more than the board wanted. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan at No. 175 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick206 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights in pick 206 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Mark Perry
Mark Perry in the 249th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
