Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Chiefs spent real capital to be 97 picks early on Jawhar Jordan, and the board is going to hold them to it.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Legette steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Javon Foster
A reasonable price with a little left over, Javon Foster in pick No. 57. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Audric Estime
Audric Estime in the 89th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton at the 125th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick167 Rnd5 T.J. Sanders
They went early on T.J. Sanders in Round 5, Pick 31, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick171 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They paid a round early for Theo Johnson in pick 171, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dorian Singer
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dorian Singer. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan in No. 203 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Justin Eboigbe
A wild overpay on Justin Eboigbe in the 246th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
