Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureD
Best value of the weekend goes to the Chiefs for Scott: B.

The Chiefs spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Justin Scott, the No. 22 name on the board, in pick 73.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. It is not that Roberts is a bad player; it is that the Chiefs had louder needs to answer first. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Trey'Dez Green
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup weapon at tight end, outstanding value to boot.
Pick73 Rnd3 Justin Scott
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Justin Scott in Round 3, Pick 9, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Charlie Becker
Charlie Becker at No. 76 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Ben Roberts
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback and running back to take Ben Roberts, a linebacker that was not the priority.
Pick133 Rnd4 Peyton Bowen
A surprising call. With quarterback and running back still to address, they spent the 133rd pick on Peyton Bowen, a safety they were not short of.
Pick138 Rnd4 Ian Moore
They paid a round early for Ian Moore in slot 138, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick193 Rnd6 Xavier Lucas
Xavier Lucas in the 193rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick209 Rnd6 Mateen Ibirogba
Circle this one: Mateen Ibirogba at pick 209 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
