Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Chiefs: B-.

The Teddye Buchanan selection is the head-turner. The Chiefs reached 24 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. However the rest shakes out, Henderson at that price is a win they earned.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In pick 31 they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A tidy bit of business in the Round 2 slot, where TreVeyon Henderson graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter in No. 66 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick95 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in Round 3, Pick 31 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
They took Malachi Moore at par in slot 133, which is nothing to complain about. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick226 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at pick No. 226 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick251 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. in the 251st pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns in slot 257 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
