Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Chiefs and Grable: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tylan Grable got past him. The Chiefs do not have to explain a thing at the 252nd overall pick. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 32nd pick they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at No. 64 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick100 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A clean, defensible pick in the 100th overall pick with a little surplus value in Khyree Jackson. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick132 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They took Christian Jones at par in pick 132, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick159 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
No edge and no loss on Dylan Laube in pick No. 159; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick173 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Good price on Kamal Hadden in slot 173, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick222 Rnd7 Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy at Round 7, Pick 2 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252 Rnd7 Tylan Grable
You do not let an offensive lineman like Tylan Grable reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
