Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs kept it disciplined and banked a B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Chiefs started one anyway for Malachi Lawrence, 28 picks ahead of schedule. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Miller.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In the 9th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Christen Miller
A slide stopped in pick No. 40, with Christen Miller worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick74 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Eli Stowers in pick 74. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence in the 109th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
A wild overpay on Earnest Greene III in slot 146, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick176 Rnd5 Bud Clark
No drama and no debate, Bud Clark went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
