Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chiefs.

The tape said wait; the Chiefs did not. Joshua Gray went at the 133rd pick, a good 57 picks before the board was ready.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Winston Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at tight end, quarterback and other spots.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 31st overall pick they get a rangy last line of defense, and a steal at that.
Pick63 Rnd2 Quinshon Judkins
They took Quinshon Judkins at par in No. 63, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick66 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
A tidy bit of business in the 66th pick, where Elic Ayomanor graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the Round 3 slot on Kevin Winston Jr. with tight end, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick133 Rnd4 Joshua Gray
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joshua Gray well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
Jaylin Smith in slot 251 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick257 Rnd7 Logan Parr
No edge and no loss on Logan Parr in Round 7, Pick 41; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
