Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Amegadjie should have been long gone. The Chiefs pounced, and earned a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kiran Amegadjie, the 92nd overall pick, roughly 39 picks past where he belonged.

If Lewis pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In No. 29 they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Mekhi Wingo
A straight-up fair deal on Mekhi Wingo at pick No. 61, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick92 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in the 92nd pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine slipping to Round 4, Pick 29 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
No drama and no debate, Kitan Oladapo went about where he belonged in pick 161. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick171 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
They barely believed it either: Braelon Allen still on the board at the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in slot 175 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick207 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus in the 207th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick250 Rnd7 Aaron Lewis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Aaron Lewis this early at pick No. 250. It fills a real need, too.
