Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Haulcy should have been long gone. The Chiefs pounced, and earned a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how A.J. Haulcy got past him. The Chiefs do not have to explain a thing at the 92nd overall pick. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Reaching for Proctor left real value on the table behind him. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kadyn Proctor
In pick No. 9 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick29 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In pick 29 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
They paid a round early for D'Angelo Ponds in the 40th pick, more than the board wanted. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick92 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy at the 92nd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick109 Rnd4 Caden Curry
A reach for Caden Curry in Round 4, Pick 9; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
A reach on Bryce Lance in the Round 4 slot; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kaleb Proctor
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kaleb Proctor well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick154 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens at slot 154 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
They took Kaleb Elarms-Orr at par in pick 169, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick176 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor at the 176th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A straight-up fair deal on DJ Campbell at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick210 Rnd6 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves slipping to pick No. 210 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
