Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Alexander should have been long gone. The Chiefs pounced, and earned a B.

The board owed the Chiefs one, and it paid up: Zy Alexander, the No. 72 name on the board, sitting there at No. 95 like a gift left on the doorstep.

The offensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
Nothing to complain about; Colston Loveland went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in the 63rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick66 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor is a better player than pick 66 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick95 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
They barely believed it either: Zy Alexander still on the board at pick No. 95. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick133 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at the 133rd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It fills a real need, too.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
You do not let a cornerback like Jabbar Muhammad reach Round 7, Pick 35 and blink. They did not. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick257 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns at the Round 7 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
