Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs robbed the room for Thrash. Final grade: B.

Somebody in slot 159 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Chiefs sat still while Jamari Thrash, the No. 130 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In No. 32 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in the Round 2 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick95 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A straight-up fair deal on Caelen Carson at the 95th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick132 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
They paid sticker price for Roger Rosengarten in the 132nd pick, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash at pick No. 159 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick173 Rnd5 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader in Round 5, Pick 37 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick252 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony at slot 252 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
