Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chiefs: B-.

The curious call sets the tone. With tight end, quarterback and other spots still glaring, the Chiefs used the 126th overall pick on Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE they were not exactly short of.

Worthy has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Xavier Worthy
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Johnny Wilson
They liked Johnny Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 58. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick97 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick126 Rnd4 Cade Stover
A surprising call. With tight end, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 26 on Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick137 Rnd5 Nelson Ceaser
Nelson Ceaser at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick167 Rnd5 Theo Wease Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Theo Wease Jr. at the 167th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell in pick No. 171 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick175 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at pick 175 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick178 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
A slide stopped in No. 178, with Chau Smith-Wade worth more than the price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick204 Rnd6 Turner Corcoran
They took Turner Corcoran at par in the 204th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
They let Nathaniel Watson come to them and pounced at No. 247. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
