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

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Chiefs would have aced it. Jarquez Hunter at Round 6, Pick 29 is 72 spots clear of where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In slot 26 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Brenden Rice
A real head-scratcher, Brenden Rice in the 58th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
By-the-book stuff, Jalen McMillan at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Frank Gore Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Frank Gore Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick167 Rnd5 AJ Barner
They jumped the gun on AJ Barner, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
A conviction pick on Jaylen Harrell at the 171st pick that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick175 Rnd5 Josh Proctor
They paid sticker price for Josh Proctor in pick No. 175, and that is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter in the 204th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool in Round 7, Pick 27 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
