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

Everything else got attention, and tight end got none. That is a strange way for the Chiefs to leave a draft. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Barrett pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The McCormick pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

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

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 26 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kingsley Suamataia in pick 64. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in No. 104 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick138 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
They went early on Mason McCormick in Round 5, Pick 2, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Nice patience on Luke McCaffrey, who had no business lasting to the 159th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick173 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 173rd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick252 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Barrett at slot 252 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
