Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall C
ValueF NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs landed square in the muddy middle: C.

The Chiefs put a flag in the ground for Maliq Carr, 304 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It lands right in the middle: a C, no more, no less.

However the rest shakes out, Grant at that price is a win they earned. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Spending an early pick on specialist with wide receiver, quarterback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with tight end the one that mattered most.

Hit on Josh Conerly Jr. and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
In pick No. 31 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Maliq Carr
Value said wait; Maliq Carr in pick 63 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick66 Rnd3 Thor Griffith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
Steal is underselling it; Kenneth Grant at the 95th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick132 Rnd4 Andres Borregales
A curious use of Round 4, Pick 31. Wide receiver, quarterback and other spots needed the pick; a specialist in Andres Borregales did not.
Pick256 Rnd7 Ulysses Bentley IV
A real head-scratcher, Ulysses Bentley IV in No. 256 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
