Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs let Milum fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Wyatt Milum had no business being available in pick 251, and the Chiefs did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. Tight end was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 31st pick they get a three-down runner, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Armand Membou
The board fumbled Armand Membou all the way to the 63rd overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jahdae Barron
Circle this one: Jahdae Barron at slot 66 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick95 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick133 Rnd4 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at No. 133 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick226 Rnd7 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in pick No. 226 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Wyatt Milum
You do not let an offensive lineman like Wyatt Milum reach Round 7, Pick 35 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Trey Amos
Steal is underselling it; Trey Amos at pick 257 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
