Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs cashed the board's mistake on Hunter: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jarquez Hunter at pick No. 226 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In pick 31 they get a disruptor off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson is a better player than the 63rd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick66 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at Round 3, Pick 2 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A reasonable price with a little left over, Charles Grant in pick No. 95. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
Nice patience on Jacob Parrish, who had no business lasting to the 133rd pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jarquez Hunter
They will replay Jarquez Hunter at No. 226 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton in slot 251 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Nothing to complain about; Teddye Buchanan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It fills a real need, too.
