Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Chiefs won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

Nobody else had Elijah Roberts anywhere near No. 133. The Chiefs did, by 47 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

Belton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at pick 38 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick44 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at pick No. 44 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A slide stopped in No. 54, with Jihaad Campbell worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick66 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery in slot 66 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick82 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick103 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander is a better player than the 103rd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick133 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
They talked themselves into Elijah Roberts at No. 133, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
They let Nohl Williams come to them and pounced at the 138th overall pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick148 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
You do not let an offensive lineman like Anthony Belton reach the 148th pick and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick158 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
They left a pile of value on the table to take Willie Lampkin this early at slot 158. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
