The Chiefs won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Chiefs took Ja'Kobi Lane at Round 2, Pick 27, roughly 34 spots before his name belonged.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Stowers value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
KC Concepcion
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick29
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in pick No. 29 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick38
Rnd2
Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse in pick 38 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick40
Rnd2
Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. in the 40th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick59
Rnd2
Ja'Kobi Lane
A real head-scratcher, Ja'Kobi Lane in the 59th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick74
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
Circle this one: Eli Stowers at slot 74 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109
Rnd4
Markel Bell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Markel Bell in Round 4, Pick 9. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148
Rnd5
Tim Keenan III
A tidy little value on Tim Keenan III in the 148th pick, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169
Rnd5
Aamil Wagner
Good price on Aamil Wagner in slot 169, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at pick No. 176 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick210
Rnd6
Terion Stewart
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Terion Stewart. The roster fit checks out.
