Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Khristian Boyd; the Chiefs did not wait, grabbing him 46 spots ahead at the 132nd overall pick. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The Watson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick 32 they get an anchor for the offensive line, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Roman Wilson in the 64th pick, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at slot 95 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick132 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
They reached into another round for Khristian Boyd, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Circle this one: Jaylin Simpson at No. 159 is a fall that decides a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick173 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at Round 7, Pick 32 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
