Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Priorities are a choice, and the Chiefs made a strange one, taking Maason Smith at DT-EDGE in slot 91 with quarterback, running back and other spots crying out for the pick instead.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Wilson proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Johnny Wilson
They went early on Johnny Wilson in pick 60, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending Round 3, Pick 28 on Maason Smith with quarterback, running back and other spots unsolved.
Pick128 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in slot 128 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
A straight-up fair deal on Justin Rogers at pick No. 161, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick171 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Justin Eboigbe. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick175 Rnd5 AJ Barner
AJ Barner in the 175th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick206 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in the 206th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick249 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Good price on Evan Williams in No. 249, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
