No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Chiefs.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Theo Johnson; the Chiefs did not wait, grabbing him 60 spots ahead at No. 171.

That offensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. That Moore pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get a go-to option on the outside, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
No edge and no loss on Ruke Orhorhoro in slot 63; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Rod Moore
Steal is underselling it; Rod Moore at pick No. 94 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick131 Rnd4 T.J. Sanders
They paid a round early for T.J. Sanders in pick 131, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Ray Davis
Nice patience on Ray Davis, who had no business lasting to the 163rd pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick171 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the 171st overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick175 Rnd5 Tre Harris
A reach for Tre Harris in pick No. 175; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick209 Rnd6 Dorian Singer
No drama and no debate, Dorian Singer went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby in Round 7, Pick 32 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
