Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Chiefs: B.

The Myles Cole selection is the head-turner. The Chiefs reached 25 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The Taylor-Demerson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in No. 37 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Nothing to complain about; Kiran Amegadjie went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Max Melton
By-the-book stuff, Max Melton at the 78th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick81 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at pick 81 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102 Rnd4 Trey Benson
Trey Benson slid further than he should have, and Round 4, Pick 2 is lovely value for the running back. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick107 Rnd4 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in slot 107 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wiley at the 159th pick, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick173 Rnd5 Myles Cole
Myles Cole at No. 173 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
Pick196 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Nice patience on Ty'Ron Hopper, who had no business lasting to pick No. 196. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick209 Rnd6 Logan Lee
Logan Lee at slot 209 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
