Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB FutureB
Larceny in the 63rd pick lands the Chiefs a B, Stone and all.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: David Stone, the No. 18 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 63. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Lopa pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback and running back still on the board. They will need Rhodes Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Cole
Chris Cole at Round 2, Pick 25 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick63 Rnd2 David Stone
They will replay David Stone at pick 63 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Devan Thompkins
Devan Thompkins at the 76th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Quincy Rhodes Jr.
They talked themselves into Quincy Rhodes Jr. at the 89th overall pick, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick95 Rnd3 Greg Johnson
Greg Johnson in No. 95 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Jaylen McClain in slot 117, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick133 Rnd4 Kingston Lopa
A surprising call. With quarterback and running back still to address, they spent pick No. 133 on Kingston Lopa, a safety they were not short of.
Pick138 Rnd4 Corey Myrick
A want over a need in slot 138: Corey Myrick adds a safety while quarterback and running back keeps waiting.
Pick193 Rnd6 Amare Thomas
Amare Thomas at Round 6, Pick 14 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick209 Rnd6 Nyziah Hunter
They paid up for Nyziah Hunter at the Round 6 slot when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick227 Rnd7 Benjamin Brahmer
The board had cheaper options than Benjamin Brahmer at No. 227, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick256 Rnd7 Donovan Jones
They read the board right and Donovan Jones was the payoff at the 256th overall pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
