The Chiefs won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-. The Chiefs did not so much draft Mason Reiger as overpay for him, 32 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will answer for taking cornerback early while quarterback went begging.
Cooper Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Bottom line, with Sonny Styles leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Kenyon Sadiq
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick29
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
In the 29th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick40
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman in pick No. 40 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick74
Rnd3
Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in pick 74 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette at the 92nd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick97
Rnd3
Malik Muhammad
A want over a need in slot 97: Malik Muhammad adds a cornerback while quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick109
Rnd4
Mike Washington Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Mike Washington Jr. at the 109th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick112
Rnd4
Mason Reiger
A wild overpay on Mason Reiger in pick 112, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick148
Rnd5
Kaleb Proctor
A big swing on Kaleb Proctor at No. 148, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169
Rnd5
Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost in the Round 5 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick176
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in slot 176 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210
Rnd6
Jeff Caldwell
They paid sticker price for Jeff Caldwell in Round 6, Pick 29, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
