Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Chiefs let Helm fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Gunnar Helm slide, and the Chiefs were the ones holding the card at No. 117. Highway robbery.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting Ezeiruaku proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The dealing was even money, start to finish.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick45 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
A big swing on Donovan Ezeiruaku at Round 2, Pick 13, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
They read the board right and TreVeyon Henderson was the payoff at the 63rd pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Elic Ayomanor at pick 66 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick80 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
By-the-book stuff, Andrew Mukuba at pick No. 80 squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick95 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Value with a capital V on Donovan Jackson in slot 95, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the 133rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
No edge and no loss on Nazir Stackhouse in No. 189; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Brandon Adams
Good price on Brandon Adams in the 251st pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick257 Rnd7 Kaden Prather
They paid sticker price for Kaden Prather in slot 257, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
