Best value of the weekend goes to the Chiefs for Simpson: B-. The Chiefs spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jaylin Simpson, the No. 169 name on the board, in the Round 7 slot. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
Every board in the league had Corcoran lower, and that gap is the story. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick41
Rnd2
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in the 41st overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jack Sawyer
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jack Sawyer in Round 2, Pick 25, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Nice patience on Kingsley Suamataia, who had no business lasting to slot 65. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73
Rnd3
AJ Barner
AJ Barner at the 73rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick93
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at No. 93 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick129
Rnd4
Jaylan Ford
They talked themselves into Jaylan Ford at pick 129, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138
Rnd5
Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick No. 138 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick167
Rnd5
Zy Alexander
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Zy Alexander. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick171
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
By-the-book stuff, Cody Schrader at slot 171 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick175
Rnd5
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 5, Pick 39 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick203
Rnd6
Turner Corcoran
A real head-scratcher, Turner Corcoran in pick 203 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick235
Rnd7
Jaylin Simpson
Steal is underselling it; Jaylin Simpson at the 235th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick244
Rnd7
Hayden Hatten
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Hayden Hatten. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246
Rnd7
Eugene Asante
Eugene Asante in the 246th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249
Rnd7
De'Corian Clark
Somehow De'Corian Clark was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
