Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Chiefs let Watts fall and pounced. Final grade: C+.

Somebody took the Chiefs to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

The Watts steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

Every board in the league had Belton lower, and that gap is the story. The roster is better shaped than it was, with tight end chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Nothing to complain about; Tyleik Williams went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick63 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at No. 63 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick87 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
They read the board right and Elijah Arroyo was the payoff at slot 87. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Anthony Belton
They jumped the gun on Anthony Belton, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138 Rnd4 Bhayshul Tuten
They went early on Bhayshul Tuten in the 138th overall pick, and the value did not follow. A need, and now a little less of one.
