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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Keilan Robinson at No. 249, a reach of 85 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. The Stover pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at tight end, quarterback and other spots. The Abrams-Draine pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In the 28th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in slot 60 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick91 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A surprising call. With tight end, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 3 slot on Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick128 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
The board had Kris Abrams-Draine higher than Round 4, Pick 28, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in pick No. 161 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick171 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at pick 171 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick175 Rnd5 Christian Jones
They jumped the gun on Christian Jones, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Walter Rouse well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick249 Rnd7 Keilan Robinson
Keilan Robinson at the 249th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
