Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chiefs.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Rasheen Ali; the Chiefs did not wait, grabbing him 86 spots ahead at the 203rd overall pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Marshall Jr..

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in No. 57, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at pick 89 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick125 Rnd4 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
They reached into another round for Antwaun Powell-Ryland, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. at pick No. 167 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
Nice patience on Ainias Smith, who had no business lasting to slot 171. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at slot 175 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick203 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali at No. 203 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick246 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Hayden Hatten well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
