Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chiefs: B.

The Chiefs bet big and early on Justin Rogers, 41 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Amegadjie pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In pick 26 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
They barely believed it either: Troy Franklin still on the board at pick No. 58. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
They will replay Kiran Amegadjie at No. 89 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick126 Rnd4 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers at slot 126 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick167 Rnd5 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at the 167th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick171 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
They read the board right and LaDarius Henderson was the payoff at the Round 5 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick175 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. slipping to the 175th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
