The Chiefs robbed the room for Pieper. Final grade: B+. You build a draft on nights like this. Kade Pieper had no business being available in Round 3, Pick 24, and the Chiefs did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.
If Thomas pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. It is not that Stone is a bad player; it is that the Chiefs had louder needs to answer first.
A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The Chiefs clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick55
Rnd2
David Stone
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went interior defensive lineman with David Stone while clear needs at running back and edge rusher sat open.
Pick88
Rnd3
Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper at No. 88 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick92
Rnd3
Sammy Brown
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Sammy Brown adds a linebacker and leaves running back and edge rusher untouched.
Pick118
Rnd4
Kingston Lopa
A surprising call. With running back and edge rusher still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 17 on Kingston Lopa, a safety they were not short of.
Pick124
Rnd4
Zereoue Williams
They went early on Zereoue Williams in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick139
Rnd4
Amare Thomas
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 139 on Amare Thomas with running back and edge rusher unsolved.
Pick152
Rnd5
Sammy Omosigho
A quiet steal in pick No. 152: Sammy Omosigho for less than the market said. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick155
Rnd5
Christian Gray
Christian Gray at the 155th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick163
Rnd5
Jordan Faison
Jordan Faison in pick No. 163 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick191
Rnd6
Drake Lindsey
A tidy bit of business in Round 6, Pick 12, where Drake Lindsey graded well above the range. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick194
Rnd6
Andrew Rappleyea
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Andrew Rappleyea at the 194th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick210
Rnd6
A.J. Harris
They read the board right and A.J. Harris was the payoff at the 210th overall pick. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick256
Rnd7
Tawfiq Thomas
They talked themselves into Tawfiq Thomas at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
