Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Chiefs: B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Frank Gore Jr.; the Chiefs did not wait, grabbing him 51 spots ahead at the 173rd overall pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Coleman pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

With tight end, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In pick 32 they get protection for the quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
Circle this one: Keon Coleman at pick No. 67 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A clean, defensible pick in No. 90 with a little surplus value in Khyree Jackson. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick100 Rnd3 DJ James
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with DJ James while clear needs at tight end, quarterback and other spots sat open.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at the 104th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They paid sticker price for Christian Jones in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick138 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
A straight-up fair deal on Tommy Eichenberg at slot 138, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in pick 159 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick162 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
A conviction pick on Khristian Boyd at pick No. 162 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick173 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
They reached into another round for Frank Gore Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick252 Rnd7 Evan Williams
A tidy little value on Evan Williams in No. 252, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
