Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Chiefs, and a B to prove it.

The needs board said one thing and the Chiefs did another, using No. 132 on Jarrian Jones while tight end and quarterback waited. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If Smith pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

However the rest shakes out, Mims at that price is a win they earned.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at slot 41 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Keon Coleman at the 58th overall pick is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A straight-up fair deal on Dominick Puni at No. 90, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at Round 3, Pick 28 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick95 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick No. 95 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A curious use of slot 132. Tight end and quarterback needed the pick; a cornerback in Jarrian Jones did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
They took Dylan Laube at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick180 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
This one needs a full-page explanation: Curtis Jacobs in pick 180, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231 Rnd7 Eric Watts
By-the-book stuff, Eric Watts at the 231st pick squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
