Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB+
Larceny in No. 113 lands the Chiefs a B+, Bisontis and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Chase Bisontis got past him. The Chiefs do not have to explain a thing at the 113th pick. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. With tight end, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 29th overall pick they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
By-the-book stuff, D'Angelo Ponds at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick74 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Somehow Emmanuel McNeil-Warren was still sitting there in pick No. 74, and they pounced on premier safety value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick78 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
The board fumbled Germie Bernard all the way to No. 78, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malik Muhammad
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 109th pick on Malik Muhammad with tight end, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick113 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
Steal is underselling it; Chase Bisontis at Round 4, Pick 13 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick148 Rnd5 Dametrious Crownover
A clean, defensible pick in slot 148 with a little surplus value in Dametrious Crownover. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169 Rnd5 Febechi Nwaiwu
Febechi Nwaiwu in pick 169 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick176 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Domani Jackson. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick210 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
A straight-up fair deal on Kaelon Black at pick 210, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
