Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Chiefs: B-.

The Chiefs clearly saw something nobody else did in DeMonte Capehart, taking him 68 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Watson. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In pick 29 they get a difference-maker at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
A premium they did not need to pay, Cooper Beebe a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darius Robinson in slot 92, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick129 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd in Round 4, Pick 29 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick161 Rnd5 Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams at No. 161 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick171 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
A conviction pick on Michael Barrett at the 171st pick that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick175 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Christian Jones well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick207 Rnd6 DeMonte Capehart
A real head-scratcher, DeMonte Capehart in the 207th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Blake Watson
Blake Watson at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
