Larceny in Round 2, Pick 32 lands the Chiefs a B, Sweat and all.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Chiefs were there to profit. T'Vondre Sweat, the No. 45 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 64.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the 64th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick95 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They paid sticker price for Christian Mahogany in pick 95, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
They did well to land Isaac Guerendo in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick159 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 159, where Luke McCaffrey graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick173 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern is a better player than the 173rd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
Good price on Jalen Sundell in slot 252, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
