Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedA- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Chiefs, and a B- to prove it.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Chiefs spent the 69th overall pick on Ajani Cornelius, a name most had 35 spots down the list. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 32 they get a security blanket over the middle, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the 64th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at Round 3, Pick 4 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ajani Cornelius in pick No. 69, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
