Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Chiefs, and a B to prove it.

The Chiefs put a flag in the ground for Tanner McLachlan, 31 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

Landing Cephus that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick 28 they get a blindside protector. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A reasonable price with a little left over, Ja'Tavion Sanders in pick No. 60. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
They paid sticker price for Michael Hall Jr. in the 91st overall pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the 128th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
A reach for Jordan Jefferson in Round 5, Pick 25; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick171 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Christian Jones well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali in No. 186 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
A real head-scratcher, Nathaniel Watson in pick No. 206 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
They reached a country mile for Tanner McLachlan at the 230th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick249 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
Somehow Joshua Cephus was still sitting there in slot 249, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
