Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chiefs: B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Chiefs shredded theirs for Malachi Lawrence. He came off 38 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Love.

They left with tight end solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
Jeremiyah Love at pick No. 12 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick40 Rnd2 Zion Young
Zion Young in the 40th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick74 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott at pick 74 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence at No. 109 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick146 Rnd5 Sam Roush
They liked Sam Roush enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 8. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and DeMonte Capehart at the Round 5 slot is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick176 Rnd5 VJ Payne
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for VJ Payne. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
