Draft Grade — Chiefs

The steal of the weekend belongs to the Chiefs and Egbuka: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Emeka Egbuka got past him. The Chiefs do not have to explain a thing at the Round 2 slot.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it. The dealing was even money, start to finish.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In No. 25 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
The board fumbled Emeka Egbuka all the way to the 60th pick, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89 Rnd3 D.J. James
A tidy bit of business in Round 3, Pick 26, where D.J. James graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Rogers
A straight-up fair deal on Justin Rogers at the 125th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick167 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick171 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
They paid sticker price for LaDarius Henderson in pick No. 171, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172 Rnd5 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at slot 172 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick175 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson in pick 175 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203 Rnd6 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at No. 203 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
