Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall C
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Chiefs this weekend: C.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Chiefs, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C in the wash.

Tuten has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Reid.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In slot 31 they get an enforcer at safety at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick63 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Trey Amos at the Round 2 slot. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick72 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Value with a capital V on Alfred Collins in the 72nd overall pick, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at pick No. 76 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick95 Rnd3 Anthony Belton
A reach on Anthony Belton in the 95th pick; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133 Rnd4 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in Round 4, Pick 31 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They did well to land Logan Brown in pick 149, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They paid up for Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 171 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick226 Rnd7 Karene Reid
A linebacker of that caliber at the 226th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They took Tonka Hemingway at par in No. 251, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick257 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III in pick No. 257 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
