FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Chiefs: B-. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Keilan Robinson at the Round 7 slot is 81 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Simpson. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
They liked Payton Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 60. It fills a real need, too.
Pick91
Rnd3
McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at the 91st pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
A reach on Theo Johnson in pick No. 132; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161
Rnd5
Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at pick 161 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick171
Rnd5
Michael Barrett
They paid up for Michael Barrett at No. 171 when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick175
Rnd5
Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the 175th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206
Rnd6
Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in slot 206 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick249
Rnd7
Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in pick 249 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick253
Rnd7
Keilan Robinson
Keilan Robinson at No. 253 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
