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

Thirty-one other rooms let Bhayshul Tuten slide, and the Chiefs were the ones holding the card at slot 179. Highway robbery.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 31st pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams at pick 66 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick95 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in pick No. 95, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in slot 104 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick133 Rnd4 RJ Harvey
No edge and no loss on RJ Harvey in the 133rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
A slide stopped in the Round 5 slot, with Kyle Williams worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick179 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
Steal is underselling it; Bhayshul Tuten at No. 179 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick192 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in Round 6, Pick 16 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick200 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
No drama and no debate, Caleb Rogers went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins slid further than he should have, and the 216th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick226 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
A quiet steal in pick No. 226: Caleb Ransaw for less than the market said. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jermari Harris in Round 7, Pick 35. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick257 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at the 257th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
