KC Chefs DRAFTING FOR THEChiefs

Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall

FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chiefs. The curious call sets the tone. With quarterback, running back and other spots still glaring, the Chiefs used pick No. 89 on Treydan Stukes, a cornerback they were not exactly short of. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Stribling reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
In the 9th pick they get a potential shutdown corner. More want than need.
Pick40
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
A tidy little value on Dillon Thieneman in pick 40, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick89
Rnd3
Treydan Stukes
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Treydan Stukes adds a cornerback and leaves quarterback, running back and other spots untouched.
Pick110
Rnd4
Caden Curry
Caden Curry in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick129
Rnd4
Beau Stephens
They liked Beau Stephens enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 129. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146
Rnd5
Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol in No. 146 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick176
Rnd5
Kobe Baynes
The board had cheaper options than Kobe Baynes at pick No. 176, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick187
Rnd6
Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at Round 6, Pick 8 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick239
Rnd7
De'Zhaun Stribling
They talked themselves into De'Zhaun Stribling at the 239th overall pick, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
No drama and no debate, Trey Zuhn III went about where he belonged in the 241st overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
