Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Chiefs this weekend: D+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: David Walker, 42 picks early at Round 3, Pick 2.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Warren pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyler Warren at slot 31 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, TreVeyon Henderson at Round 2, Pick 31. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66 Rnd3 David Walker
A real head-scratcher, David Walker in the 66th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick93 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Alexander. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wilson at pick No. 95, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Xavier Restrepo
Fair-plus on Xavier Restrepo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick131 Rnd4 Logan Brown
Logan Brown at the 131st overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133 Rnd4 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland in the 133rd pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick226 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
This one needs a full-page explanation: Hayden Conner in pick No. 226, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
Thomas Fidone II in No. 251 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Kitan Crawford
The board had Kitan Crawford higher than Round 7, Pick 41, and the safety fell to them anyway. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
