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

The Chiefs spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Elijah Arroyo, the No. 74 name on the board, in the Round 3 slot. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. They are betting Savaiinaea proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In No. 31 they get a building block for the line, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Kaleb Johnson at the 63rd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at Round 3, Pick 2 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick95 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
You do not let a tight end like Elijah Arroyo reach slot 95 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick132 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
A quiet steal in pick No. 132: Joshua Farmer for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
