FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Chiefs a B. The real work happened on the phones. The Chiefs fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
With quarterback, running back and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on OLB-EDGE is the choice that costs them. Every board in the league had Wilson lower, and that gap is the story.
The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Adonai Mitchell
In pick No. 32 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick67
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Paul at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
A reach on Dominick Puni in pick 74; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick78
Rnd3
Cade Stover
They did well to land Cade Stover in the 78th pick, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick107
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Javon Solomon at OLB-EDGE with quarterback, running back and other spots open.
Pick109
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
They paid a round early for Johnny Wilson in No. 109, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick140
Rnd5
Tommy Eichenberg
They took Tommy Eichenberg at par in slot 140, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick141
Rnd5
Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in the 141st overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick146
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
A conviction pick on Kitan Oladapo at the 146th pick that the board grades a round light. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick173
Rnd5
Fabien Lovett
Fabien Lovett at pick 173 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
