Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs robbed the room for Mafah. Final grade: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Phil Mafah slide, and the Chiefs were the ones holding the card at the Round 7 slot. Highway robbery. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Broughton has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 31st pick they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that.
Pick63 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They took Donovan Jackson at par in No. 63, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A reach on Darien Porter in pick 66; the board had better options right there. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick95 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
A quiet steal in slot 95: Ozzy Trapilo for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 DJ Giddens
No drama and no debate, DJ Giddens went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 33. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
They jumped the gun on Vernon Broughton, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick226 Rnd7 Karene Reid
Karene Reid is a better player than the Round 7 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
The board fumbled Phil Mafah all the way to the 251st overall pick, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 LaJohntay Wester
They did well to land LaJohntay Wester in the 257th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
