Draft Grade — Chiefs

Grand theft in pick 64: the Chiefs steal Coleman and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Chiefs watched Keon Coleman slide 28 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 32nd overall pick they get a blindside protector. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
You do not let a wide receiver like Keon Coleman reach No. 64 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kris Abrams-Draine in pick No. 95. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick133 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at slot 133 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick158 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith in Round 5, Pick 22 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick172 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at pick 172 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
