The board owed the Chiefs one, and it paid up: Julian Pearl, the No. 204 name on the board, sitting there at pick 252 like a gift left on the doorstep. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They will need Milton III to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
