Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The war room fell hard for Isaiah Williams, and it showed at pick No. 161: 37 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That Verse pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the 29th pick they get a double-digit-sack hope at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick61 Rnd2 Michael Hall Jr.
They reached a country mile for Michael Hall Jr. at slot 61, and the board is aghast. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A slide stopped in the 92nd overall pick, with Roman Wilson worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in Round 4, Pick 29, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick161 Rnd5 Isaiah Williams
A wild overpay on Isaiah Williams in pick No. 161, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A clean, defensible pick in pick 171 with a little surplus value in Kitan Oladapo. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick175 Rnd5 Christian Jones
They reached into another round for Christian Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick207 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in pick 207 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
No drama and no debate, Dwight McGlothern went about where he belonged in Round 7, Pick 30. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
