Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall F
ValueD NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Carr reach set the tone, and the Chiefs never recovered: F.

The Maliq Carr selection is the head-turner. The Chiefs reached 314 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

On value alone, Caldwell makes the weekend a net positive. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.

The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 31st pick they get a ballhawk on the outside, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick63 Rnd2 Maliq Carr
Maliq Carr at No. 63 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the 66th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick90 Rnd3 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Value said wait; Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in Round 3, Pick 26 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
They paid up for Jordan Phillips at pick 95 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick133 Rnd4 Trevor Etienne
They went early on Trevor Etienne in slot 133, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at the 251st overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick257 Rnd7 Keenan Pili
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Keenan Pili well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
