Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Chiefs for Bryant: A-.

The Chiefs spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Cobee Bryant, the No. 186 name on the board, in Round 7, Pick 38.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

The Garrett Williams deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In pick 31 they get a No. 1 receiver, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Somehow Kaleb Johnson was still sitting there in slot 63, and they pounced on premier running back value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A quiet steal in the 95th overall pick: Donovan Jackson for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick128 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in No. 128 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick132 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Alexander. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick141 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. in Round 5, Pick 2 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185 Rnd6 Emery Jones Jr.
They will replay Emery Jones Jr. at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256 Rnd7 Cobee Bryant
The board fumbled Cobee Bryant all the way to the 256th pick, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
