Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B

More right than wrong for the Chiefs, and a B to prove it.

The Chiefs spent real capital to be 70 picks early on Chico Bennett Jr., and the board is going to hold them to it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Marshall Jr.. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 31st overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in pick 63 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94 Rnd3 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at pick No. 94 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick131 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
They barely believed it either: Dominick Puni still on the board at the Round 4 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. at Round 5, Pick 27 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaylan Ford well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick175 Rnd5 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at pick 175 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick209 Rnd6 Chico Bennett Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Chico Bennett Jr. in the 209th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick252 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Value said wait; Josh Proctor in pick No. 252 says they were not listening. It adds depth where they could use a little.
