Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Chiefs: B.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Joshua Cephus at pick 210, a reach of 48 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the 64th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
They read the board right and Caelen Carson was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 32. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick133 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in pick 133 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick158 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Keith Randolph Jr. at No. 158 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at the 172nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick210 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
Value said wait; Joshua Cephus in Round 6, Pick 35 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Mark Perry
Mark Perry in No. 250 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
