Mr. JJ Fats DRAFTING FOR THEChiefs
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall
B-
ValueC
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Chiefs kept it disciplined and banked a B-. If confidence were a draft strategy, the Chiefs would have aced it. Nyck Harbor at the 40th pick is 68 spots clear of where he belonged.
Pollock at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Jordan Seaton
In the 9th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40
Rnd2
Nyck Harbor
A wild overpay on Nyck Harbor in Round 2, Pick 8, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74
Rnd3
Brice Pollock
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Brice Pollock in the 74th pick, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick109
Rnd4
Eric Singleton Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in pick 109 with a little surplus value in Eric Singleton Jr.. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146
Rnd5
Boubacar Traore
No edge and no loss on Boubacar Traore in slot 146; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick176
Rnd5
Quinten Joyner
They liked Quinten Joyner enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 176. A need, and now a little less of one.
