Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs won the night they stopped Nubin from sliding. Grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Tyler Nubin tumbling to the Chiefs in the 63rd overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the defensive front at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick63 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
A safety of that caliber at the 63rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick94 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A slide stopped in No. 94, with Roman Wilson worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick131 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A reasonable price with a little left over, Javon Foster in Round 4, Pick 31. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in pick 161 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
Value with a capital V on LaDarius Henderson in the 171st overall pick, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
They took Curtis Jacobs at par in pick No. 175, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick209 Rnd6 Myles Jones
No edge and no loss on Myles Jones in slot 209; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick252 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at slot 252 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
