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

The Zion Logue selection is the head-turner. The Chiefs reached 41 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Landing Liufau that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick70 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A clean, defensible pick in the 70th pick with a little surplus value in Caelen Carson. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick94 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Nice patience on Marist Liufau, who had no business lasting to pick 94. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick107 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in No. 107 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick131 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
A reasonable price with a little left over, Justin Eboigbe in the 131st overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick161 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
They liked Frank Gore Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 5 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
A quiet steal in No. 171: LaDarius Henderson for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick175 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at the 175th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick209 Rnd6 Zion Logue
Value said wait; Zion Logue in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick252 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at pick 252 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
