Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall C-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Chiefs to a C-.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Chiefs reached some 32 spots for Eric Watts, and value like that does not grow back. The final tally is a middling C-.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Ladd McConkey
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in the 42nd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro is a better player than the 64th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick95 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
Caelen Carson at slot 95 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick133 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They paid a round early for Roger Rosengarten in the Round 4 slot, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick158 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in No. 158 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick172 Rnd5 Eric Watts
Eric Watts at No. 172 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
