Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall C
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD FutureC
The Chiefs bled value on every deal, hence the C.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Tip Reiman in Round 5, Pick 36, a good 52 spots before the room expected him. Call it a C and check back in two years.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

So much rides on Keon Coleman that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In pick 32 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa in the 43rd pick is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick95 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
By-the-book stuff, Brenden Rice at slot 95 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick111 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A premium they did not need to pay, Javon Foster a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Malik Mustapha in pick No. 123 leaves quarterback, running back and other spots for later.
Pick133 Rnd4 Marcus Harris
No edge and no loss on Marcus Harris in pick No. 133; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick143 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
They took Roger Rosengarten at par in Round 5, Pick 7, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick158 Rnd5 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy at the 158th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172 Rnd5 Tip Reiman
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tip Reiman in slot 172, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
